Question

medal and fan!

Answer 1

Select the equation of the line that passes through the point (3, −1) and is parallel to the line on the graph.

y = −1
y = 3
y = x −1
y = 3x −1

Answer 2

hold on there is a graph

Answer 3

Ok, I thought so.

Answer 4

there

Answer 5

Ok, so first off, we want a line parallel to a horizontal line. What kind of line will that be?

Answer 6

a line that is going in the same direction as the other line. i think

Answer 7

Yeah, so horizontal or vertical?

Answer 8

horizontal

Answer 9

Yup! ^_^ And how do we define a horizontal line?

Answer 10

im not sure

Answer 11

Well, we just use y = the height of the line

Answer 12

So, if we say y=1 it will look like this:

Answer 13

so 2?

Answer 14

on the y axis

Answer 15

y=2 would be parallel to this line, HOWEVER it also has to pass through the point (3,-1)

Answer 16

In the coordinate (3,-1) which value is y?

Answer 17

-1

Answer 18

Ok, so how do we construct a horizontal line with the height -1?

Answer 19

(Write the equation)

Answer 20

i dont understand

Answer 21

would the answer be A

Answer 22

so if y=1 is a horizontal line that has a height of 1, what is a horizontal line that has a height of -1

Answer 23

-1?

Answer 24

y=-1 is the answer.

Answer 25

So, you were right, it's a

Answer 26

im sorry im really bad at this

Answer 27

thank you

Answer 28

No prob! You'll get the hang of it!
