If a line is parallel to another, the slopes of both lines are the same. So for this problem, you can infer that the slope of the line you're trying to find is 3.
To find the actual equation of the line, you can use the given coordinates and plug them into the point slope form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
plug the given y coordinate into y1 and the given x coordinate into x1. m is the slope, so plug in 3 for m.
y - 1 = 3(x +2) Use distributive property for right side of equation
y - 1 = 3x + 6 add 1 to both sides to cancel -1 on left side of equation and isolate y
Equation of line: y = 3x + 7
Answer:
the answer should be 158 but I'm not a hundred percent sure
-28 because using PEMDAS you would do -5x8 which =-40 plus 12 is -28
Amount financed
137,900−137,900×0.20
=110,320
number of thousands
110,320÷1,000
=110.32
Multiply it by the monthly payment per thousands
110.32×7.34
=809.7488
Now multiply it by the number of months in a year
809.7488×12 months
=9,716.9856
Multiply it by the number of years
9,716.9856×30
=291,509.568
Now the total amount of interest charged
291,509.568−110,320
=181,189.568 round your answer
=181190...answer
Hope it helps
