Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y = 1/2 x + 5

Mathematics

kumpel [21]4 years ago

Answer:

y = 1/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

When 2 lines are parallel, they have the same slope.

Step 1: Define variables

Random point (2, 6)

<em>m</em> = 1/2

y = 1/2x + b

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

6 = 1/2(2) + b

6 = 1 + b

5 = b

Step 3: Rewrite parallel linear equation

y = 1/2x + 5

| 2 | is absolute value, which means you turn the number inside to positive, which it already is. Because there is a negative symbol on the OUTSIDE of the lines, the 2 becomes a -2.

y = -2 + 10

-2 + 10 = 8

y = 8

The graph of a line passes through the points (0,-2) and (6,0). What is the equation of the line?
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

y=1/3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(0-(-2))/(6-0)

m=(0+2)/6

m=2/6

simplify

m=1/3

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=1/3(x-0)

y+2=1/3(x)

y+2=1/3x

y=1/3x-2
