Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = -3x + 12 and passes through the point (-1, 6).

Answer 1

y = one thirdx + 7
y = -3x + 3
y = one thirdx + 3
y = -3x + 7

Answer 2

well we know since it's parallel it's going to have the same slope

Answer 3

and we are going to have to first do point-slope form in order to get the actual equation

Answer 4

okay. what next?

Answer 5

ok, now do the distributive property, distribute 3 into x and 1

Answer 6

okay.

Answer 7

now what, @ccswims ?
