Question

The equation of line CD is y = -2x - 2. Write an equation of a line parallel to line CD in slope-intercept form that contains point (4, 5).

Answer 1

y = -2x + 13

y = -1/2x + 7

y = -1/2x + 3

y = − 2x − 3

Answer 2

I know that the slope has to be the same.

Answer 3

So either A or D

Answer 4

parallel lines have the same slope...
then sub in pt. (4,5)
now you know that m=-2, x=4, and y=5...sub. into y=mx+b to find b

Answer 5

to i have to input..

Answer 6

substitute m=-2, x=4, and y=5 to y=mx+b to find b

Answer 7

im going with D
y = − 2x − 3
is this correct..

Answer 8

did you solve it?

Answer 9

yes.

Answer 10

what did you get as b?

Answer 11

-3

Answer 12

wrong

Answer 13

how would i do it?

Answer 14

2

Answer 15

substitute m=-2, x=4, and y=5 to y=mx+b to find b

Answer 16

b = 13

Answer 17

@AntiNode

Answer 18

so its A?

Answer 19

@FlvsGirl

Answer 20

yes

Answer 21

thanks a lot
i have 2 more easy questions if you can help

Answer 22

did you understand how to get it?

Answer 23

ok I will try

Answer 24

The equation of line LM is y = 5x + 4. Write an equation of a line perpendicular to line LM in slope-intercept form that contains point (-3, 2).

y = 5x + 13

y = -1/5 x + 7/5

y = - 1/5 x -7/5

y = 5x - 17

Answer 25

what will be the slope here?

Answer 26

-1/5

Answer 27

now you have m=-1/5, x=-3, y=2...
as what we did before substitute these values in y=mx+b

Answer 28

b = 7/5

Answer 29

its B

Answer 30

y = -1/5 x + 7/5

Answer 31

correct?

Answer 32

yes

Answer 33

i have one more @AntiNode :-)

Answer 34

ok..I may reply late because OS is lagging
