Question

100 POINTS (urgent) Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (2, 3) and is parallel to the line y =3/2X + 5

Answer 1

Answer:

C.  3/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we know that the slopes are the same because parallel lines have the same slope. Then we can find the y-intercept by using the slope and point in slope-intercept form.  

y = mx + b ---> plug in known values

3 = (3/2)(2) + b ---> Multiply

3 = 3 + b ---> Subtract 3 from both sides.  

0 = b

Since the intercept is 0, you will not see a number after the slope and x.
