is the equation y = 3x-2 or y+3x=-2 or something else?

anonymous · Answer

i'm pretty sure it's y = 3x-2

anonymous · Answer

At least that would make the most sense

@Vocaloid im not sure this was all the question said

vocaloid · Answer

ok, assuming our equation is y = 3x-2 and our point is (-2,4)

parallel means same slope, so our slope is 3

then we use the point slope equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is our given point
