In this problem, do I just find the point slope and slope intercept form of line (3,3)? http://prntscr.com/bk92qm

OpenStudy (thatonegirl_):

Yes and it has to be parallel so it needs to have the same slope, 5.

OpenStudy (thatonegirl_):

y=mx+b 3=5(3)+b 3=15+b b=-12 y=5x-12

OpenStudy (thatonegirl_):

Point slope form is different from slope intercept form though. It is y-y1=m(x-x1)

OpenStudy (mathguy5):

Will the slope always be stated in the problem every time,even if the line isn't parallel to the other one?

OpenStudy (thatonegirl_):

No not necessarily. Do you have an example ?

OpenStudy (mathguy5):

For point slope form i got y=5x+b

OpenStudy (thatonegirl_):

you need b too
