How do you find the equation for the line that is parallel to the line y=2/3x-7 and passes through the point (3,-1)

parallel lines have the same exact slope hmmm what's the slope of y = 2/3x-7 anyway? well, low and behold, is already in slope-intercept form, therefore

\bf \stackrel{\textit{slope-intercept form}}{y=\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{2}{3}}x-7}.


so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 2/3, and runs through 3, -1.


\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})~\hspace{7em} slope =  m\implies \cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-1)=\cfrac{2}{3}(x-3) \\\\\\ y+1=\cfrac{2}{3}x-2\implies y=\cfrac{2}{3}x-3

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. Side CD and side DG meet at endpoint D to form <4. Therefore, the sides of <4 are:

Side CD and side DG.

2. Vertex of <2 is the endpoint at which two sides meet to form <2.

Vertex of <2 is D.

3. Another name for <3 is <EDG

4. <5 is less than 90°. Therefore, <5 can be classified as an acute angle.

5. <CDE is less than 180° but greater than 90°. Therefore, <CDE is classified as an obtuse angle.

6. m<5 = 42°

m<1 = 117°

m<CDF = ?

m<5 + m<1 = m<CDF (angle addition postulate)

42° + 117° = m<CDF (Substitution)

159° = m<CDF

m<CDF = 159°

7. m<3 = 73°

m<FDE = ?

m<FDG = right angle = 90°

m<3 + m<FDE = m<FDG (Angle addition postulate)

73° + m<FDE = 90° (Substitution)

73° + m<FDE - 73° = 90° - 73°

m<FDE = 17°

Answer:

slope intercept form is y=mx+b

a line parallel to y=-1/5x-1 is any line with the same slope but different y intercept. for example y=-1/5x+1
