Question

Write an equation of a line parallel to y = 2/3 x -5 in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (-6, -1).

Answer 1

a. y= 2/3 x + 3
b. y= 2/3 x - 6
c. y= -3x - 1
d. y= 3x + 6

Answer 2

i think it's B

Answer 3

let us re-write the parallel equation using, y=mx+c
I hope you are familiar with this

Answer 4

y=mx+b

Answer 5

that too, for a parallel line, the m (slope/gradient) is the same
so far our new equation is y=(2/3)x + b

Answer 6

they said, x=-6 and y=-1
therefore we get -1=(2/3)(-1) + b
we find for b,

Answer 7

b the equation said was -5

Answer 8

and x is -6
