Question

If you know a point on a line and you know the equation of a line parallel to this line, explain how to write the line’s equation.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, parallel lines have the same slope, so the slopes should be the same , and then you use the given point to find the y intercept

EX:

y=x+1

find equation of line the is parallel and passes through (1, 1)

Same slope, so y=x+b

then plug in the point

1=1+b

b=0

our line would be y=x
