please help medal and fan

Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (2, 6) and parallel to y = -3x - 4. y = 3x - 12 y = -3x y = -3x + 12 y = 3x

@ganeshie8 please help medal and fan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is y=3x+12 but I am not sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

line parallel to y=mx+b is y=mx +c to find c substitute the given point.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that would be whatever is between 2,6 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no x=2 ,y=6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so would you substitute y for 6 and x for 2 in the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be 6=3(2)+b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6=3(2)+c c=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how ? 6-6=c c=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so c=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now substitute in y=mx+c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=3x+0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so basically the last answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you do you have time to answer another question

OpenStudy (anonymous):
