Question

write the equation of the line that passes through (4,3) and is parrallel to the line y=x+1

Answer 1

Since the line has to be parallel to y=x+1, it has to have the same slope, so when you set it up the equation will start like this:\[Y=x+b\]Since y is given as 3 and x equals 4, you know that
3=4+b. Solve for b and you get b=-1

Answer 2

okay so how would you write it at the end

Answer 3

as an equation

Answer 4

y=x-1

Answer 5

thanks can we do another?
