Question

what is an equation of the line that passes through the point (7,3) and is parallel to the line 4x+2y=10?

Answer 1

I put that into y=mx+b form and got y= -2x+5

Answer 2

what's the slope of y= -2x+5

Answer 3

-2

Answer 4

So this unknown parallel line will also have a slope of -2

Answer 5

y = mx+b

y = -2x+b

Now plug in the given point (x,y) = (7,3)

3 = -2(7) + b

then solve for b

Answer 6

oh okay. Thanks :)
