Question

Determine the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line parallel to y = x + 11 that passes through the point (–6, 2).

Answer 1

What do you think it may be

Answer 2

-4/3x +-6

Answer 3

I think you're right, but I'm not 100% sure.

Answer 4

old question but will respond so this can be closed

right off the bat, your equation cannot be right because the slope is wrong. if it's parallel to y = x + 11, then it must have the same slope as y = x + 11.

remember that the general slope intercept form is y = mx + b, so the slope of y = x + 11 is 1 (x = 1x)

from there:
treat your point (–6, 2) as your (x,y). plug m, x, and y into y = mx + b to solve for b

then re-write y = mx + b by filling in your m and b values from before.
