Question

What is the equation of the line that goes through (-2, 1) and is parallel to y = 3x - 3?

A. y-1=1/3(x+2)
B. y+1=-1/3(x-2)
C. y - 1 = 3(x + 2)
D. y + 1 = 3(x - 2)

Answer 1

"parallel" means that equation must have the slope of 3 so you can eliminate A and B right away. Then you plug x = -2 and y = 1 to eliminate either C or D.

Answer 2

thank you, i forgot that haha, thank you
