Step-by-step explanation:
Any lines that are parallel to each other have the same slope (coefficient of x is the same)
In this case, y = 2x + c.
Since it includes the point (0, 1), the y-intercept is 1 and that is c itself.
Hence, the equation of the parallel line is y = 2x + 1.
Slope denoted as m can be calculated from 2 diff. points using the formula:
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = 1 - 12 / 25 - 0 = -11 / 25
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. Using a point,
12 = -11/25(0) + b
12 = b
y-intercept is 12.
To summarize, slope is -11/25, negative because decreasing trend and y-intercept is 12.
