please help will medal and fan Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = -3x + 12 and passes through the point (-1, 6). y = 1/3x + 7 y = -3x + 3 y = 1/3x + 3 y = -3x + 7
I think its a just wanna be sure
A*
a line that is parallel to the first line should have the same slope. So you should be able to eliminate two choices if you know the slope-intercept formula. Next, you will need to plug in the x and y values of the point given and solve for the y-intercept
\[y=mx+b\] Slope intercept formula
the slope intercept form is y=mx+b right
the answer is not A. Yes that is the slope intercept form, where m is the slope, b is the y-intercept and x and y are coordinates for the x and y axes respectively.
ok but it doesn't say the slope
@Blonde_Gangsta please help
give me a minute
thank you np
Im going for y = -3x + 3 but im not great at this, so dont go all mad on me if its wrong lol
its ok I wont you tried thank you
welcome
r u available to help with another its like this but theres fractions
That answer is correct, but the way you find what the y-intercept is you need to plug in the point given into: y=mx+b, you know that m = -3. plug in the values of x and y and solve for b
yeah
thank you the both of you
