Question

FAN AND MEDAL!!!!!!
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

Answer 1

hints: lines that are parallel have the same slope

Answer 2

I know that

Answer 3

ok so you know that your line is
y = -3x + b , now you need to find b

Answer 4

how would I do that?

Answer 5

you can plug in the given point (2,6) for x and y, and solve for b

Answer 6

6= -3(2) -4?

Answer 7

hello?

Answer 8

it should be

Answer 9

y = -3x + b , plug in (2,6)

6 = -3*2 + b

6 = -6 + b

6 + 6 = b

12 = b
