Answer:
y=3/2x+11/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello! Sorry I just saw this
Anyways, let's continue
first, we need to find the equation of the line with the one that is (-2,-4) and (2,2)
first, we need to find the slope
the equation for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1
so let's label the points
x1=-2
y1=-4
x2=2
y2=2
now plug it in
2-(-4)/2-(-2)=6/4=3/2
now, let's turn it into a line
the point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1) (m=slope)
now, plug it in
y-(-4)=3/2(x-(-2))
simplify to
y+4=3/2(x+2)
turn into y=mx+b format
y+4=3/2x+3
subtract 4 on both sides
y=3/2x-1
Now for the line that is parallel.
Parallel lines have the same slopes, so you automatically know that the new line will be y=3/2x+b
To make sure (-3,1) is a solution to the point, put 1 as y and -3 as x
1=3/2(-3)+b
1=-9/2+b
add 9/2 on both sides
b=11/2 or 5.5
now, put it into the equation
y=3/2x+11/2
Hope this helps!
I think the correct answer is C but im not positive
I decided to write out the answer in paint, you can see it as an attachment.
