Write an equation of the line that is parallel to the given line y = 2x + 3 and the given point (-4,1).

Nnesha (nnesha):

parallel lines have same slope so y = mx + b what is your slope of th line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i doesn't say

Nnesha (nnesha):

what ???

Nnesha (nnesha):

what is slope of this line y = 2x + 3

Nnesha (nnesha):

y =mx + b is slope intercept form equation where m is slope which is always with x and b is y-intercept

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh 2

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes so other line should be y = 2x + b

Nnesha (nnesha):

they gave you point which is ( -4 , 1)|dw:1415741129443:dw| plug x and y into the equation and solve for b
