Question

9. Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point.

Answer 1

Answer:

  y -11 = 2(x -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is the x-coefficient: 2. The parallel line will have the same slope.

When you know the slope and a point on the line, it is convenient to use the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Your line's equation is ...

  y -11 = 2(x -3)
