Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = 2x + 2 and passes through the point (5, 3).
A. y = 2x - 7
B. y=-1/2x-2
C. y = 2x - 2
D. y=-1/2x-7

Answer 1

parallel lines = same slope
so which answer choices have the same slope as y = 2x + 2 ?

Answer 2

A and C?

Answer 3

Here's a previous post with how to do it and why you would do those steps

Answer 4

correct

Answer 5

now we need to find which one of those lines has the points (5,3)

Answer 6

C?

Answer 7

let's start with A
\(3=2*5-7\)

Answer 8

2*5?

Answer 9

10

Answer 10

10 - 7?

Answer 11

3

Answer 12

\(3=3\) ?

Answer 13

1?

Answer 14

no is 3 = 3 ?

Answer 15

yes?

Answer 16

I agree with @Mehek14
Same slope

Answer 17

so A is your answer
we can check c as well
\(y=2x-2\\3=2*5-2\\2*5=10-2=8\\3~is~not~equal~to~8\)

Answer 18

ohhh thats right lol thnx :)

Answer 19

anytime ^_^
