Question

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

Answer 1

paralell lines have same slope so slope=3

and now use this ..

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

plug in values and solve..m=slope

Answer 2

whats the y- y1 and x-x1 how do you know the difference.... sorry im not very good at math lol

Answer 3

here you have (x1,y1)=(4,-2)

put these vaues at thier place and solve..

Answer 4

(y-4)=3(x+2)
-4y=3x+6
do i have it right so far?
