Answer:
y = 2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you have an equation and a point, all you need to do is substitute the coordinates into the equation and then solve for the y-intercept (or "b"):
y = mx + b
y = 2x + 2
(-3, -5)
-5 = 2(-3) + b
-5 = -6 + b
-5 + 6 = b
b = 1
Now you have your final equation:
y = 2x + 1
*Remember that parallel lines have the same slope, so finding a new slope is not needed!
1.595 to 2 decimal points is 1.60 because the second decimal place is nearest to 10.
