Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point (-2, 4) and is parallel to y = -3x + 6.

y = one thirdx + 14 thirds

y = 3x + 10

y = -3x - 2

y = -one thirdx + 10 thirds

@Hero I really need help

hero · Answer

Hint: If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equal.

anonymous · Answer

is the formula Y = Mx + B? @Hero

hero · Answer

Yes, but usually in lower case letters. y = mx + b

anonymous · Answer

oh sorry so the slope is -3 right?

hero · Answer

Correct

anonymous · Answer

but that means that since its rise over run it was -3/1

anonymous · Answer

so the rise is -3 and the run is 1 correct?

hero · Answer

I concur
