y = 3x -1 is graphed. you have a parallel line that gose thru point 2,0. what is the equation for the other line.

Question

freethinker · Answer

parallel lines are lines of the same slope

freethinker · Answer

use the point slope form using the same slope as given with the points it goes through

esshotwired · Answer

If you know point-slope, then you can plug everything in and solve. So with this one it would be: y-0=3(x-2)

freethinker · Answer

oops

freethinker · Answer

so knowing that your slope is 3 from the first y-intercept form equation of y=3x-1 
you can use it in the point-slope form to look for the equation of the other line$$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$$

esshotwired · Answer

Then you would add 0 to both sides(nothing will change). Then distribute. After you distribute, you will get the answer. Try it and I will tell you if you are correct.
