Write an equation that is parallel to y = 3x and passes through (-4 , -3)
Anit [1.1K]
The slopes of two parallel lines must be identical.

We have slope m=3, so the slope for the parallel line be the same.

Now, to find an equation that also passes through the given point, we use slope-point form, y-y_1=m(x-x_1), where our point (-4,-3) is substituted for (x_1,y_1).

y+3=3(x+4)

Now, we convert to slope-intercept form as such.

y=3x+12-3\\y=3x+9

And we are done. :) We can verify graphically that these are indeed parallel lines. See attached.
