Question

PLZ help gold medal will b awarded.write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y=2x+2 and passes through the point (5,3)

Answer 1

If a line is parallel that means that it shares the same slope. In our case, 2.

Now all we need to do is find the y-intercept which we can do by plugging in the values of x and y given by the coordinate. Do you think you can solve from here?

Answer 2

no...

Answer 3

hey can i get answer for this one cuz i got to go eat

Answer 4

plz

Answer 5

We have the given equation,

\(y=2x+2\)

We know that our line will be parallel, and therefore have the same slope.

\(y=2x+b\)

Now we need to find b, we do this by inputting the values for x and y from the coordinate given.

\((x,y)\rightarrow (5,3)\)

\(3=2(5)+b\)
\(3=10+b\)
\(b=-7\)

Therefore we have,

\(y=2x-7\)

Does this make sense?

Answer 6

yes
