Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 3x - y = -3 and passes through the point (4, -2).


Answer choices:

y = -one thirdx - 6

y = -one thirdx - 14

y = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 14

Answer 2

I don't know how.. I don't know where to start

Answer 3

-3x-y=-3 ?
idk I really need help

Answer 4

If you cannot rewrite this equation then it is unlikely that you can solve the question.

The equation is

3x-y= -3

First : Add 3 to each side of the equation
THEN Add y to each side of the equation
