Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (3, -2) and parallel to y = 3x - 6.
These are the options :
a. y = -3x - 13
b. y = -3x + 11
c. y = -3x + 13
d. y = -3x + 1

-2 = (3•3) + b solve for b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
b = 9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
not quite :)
and are you sure there aren't any typos in your options or question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
My bad these are the options lol
a. y = 3x + 7
b. y = 3x - 11
c. y = -3x + 11
d. y = -3x - 12

cool :)
then try -2 = (3•3) + b
-2 = 9 + b solve for b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
for b
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
mmm close! :)
-2 = 9 + b subtract 9 from both sides
-9 -9
b = -2 - 9 = ?
what is -2 - 9 = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-2 -9 = -11

yep :)
so we got that b = -11
so y = 3x - 11

Ok thanks :] so i'm trying to learn how to still do it i get confused .. I got another question ima try doing it by myself if i cant get it i'll post it here
