Question

Hi! I need some help with an algebra 1 question. I will give a medal and become a fan! Please explain how you solved it! :)

-
Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line parallel to y = 5x + 2, which passes through the point (4, 9).


y = -1/5 - 11

y = -5x + 9

y = 5x - 11

Thank you so much!

Answer 1

what is your avatar? hehehe, I don't know what it is

Answer 2

if they have same m, different b, they are parallel, no solutions same m, same b, identical, infinite number of solutions (ill defined) different m, one solution, their intersection. Thanks to @douglaswinslowcooper

Answer 3

@Loser66 ahaha that's my cat with my glasses!

Answer 4

start learning, ok?
the required line // to the given line
the given line has the slope is 5 ---> the required line will have the same slope,
Among the answer, only the last one has the slope is 5. So???

Answer 5

Hahah thank you! It would be y=5x-11. That makes more sense. :)

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

If the options have so many equations with the same slope, you need a point to figure out the equation. But in this case, just only 1 case satisfy the first condition :// , then, stop there.

Answer 8

Thank you so much^^

Answer 9

np. the avatar looks weird but cute

Answer 10

@Loser66 Hahah thanks :)
