Question

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 2

@Nnesha

Answer 3

parallel lines shuld have same slope

Answer 4

y=-3x-4 do you know what is slope in this equation ?

Answer 5

y = mx+b
here m is slope which is always with x and b is -intercept
what is m in this equation y = -3x - 4

Answer 6

-3

Answer 7

@Nnesha

Answer 8

yes right so like i said before parallel lines have same slope
so look at your answer choices and see which other equation have -3 slope

Answer 9

b and c? @Nnesha

Answer 10

yes you can cancel out A and d
okay so now you have to use order pair
y=mx+b
m is -3 so you can wirte it as
y = -3x +b
( 2,6) <---use this order pair where first number is x and 2nd one is y
(x,y)

Answer 11

replace x and y by their values into this equation y=-3x+b
and then solve for b

Answer 12

ok @Nnesha

Answer 13

can u substitute x and y values into equation
