Question

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y = 7x +13 that passes through the point (28, 8).

Answer 1

Answer:

y=7x-188

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that this line must have a slope of 7, because this line is parallel to y=7x+13

We must use the point slope formula: y-$y_{1}$= m(x-$x_{1}$)

Next, we will plug in the point (28,8) for $y_{1}$ and $x_{1}$, and 7 in for m

y-8=7(x-28)

Solve the equation, first by distributing the 7

y-8=7x-196

Add the 8 over

y=7x-188
