Step-by-step explanation:

Negative Exponent Rule:

, this says that negative exponents in the numerator get moved to the denominator and become positive exponents. Negative exponents in the denominator get moved to the numerator and become positive exponents.

How do you find the equation for the line that is parallel to the line y=2/3x-7 and passes through the point (3,-1)

Debora [2.8K]

parallel lines have the same exact slope hmmm what's the slope of y = 2/3x-7 anyway? well, low and behold, is already in slope-intercept form, therefore

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{slope-intercept form}}{y=\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{2}{3}}x-7}$ .

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 2/3, and runs through 3, -1.

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})~\hspace{7em} slope = m\implies \cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-1)=\cfrac{2}{3}(x-3) \\\\\\ y+1=\cfrac{2}{3}x-2\implies y=\cfrac{2}{3}x-3$
