Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (4,-3) and is parallel to the line described by y=1/2

Marat540 [252]

Given:

The point, (4, -3)

The line,

$y=\frac{1}{2}x+5$

To find an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (4,-3) and is parallel to the given line:

The slope of the line is,

$m=\frac{1}{2}$

Since the given line is parallel to the new line, so the slope will be same for the both.

Using the point-slope formula,

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Substitute the point and slope we get,

$\begin{gathered} y-(-3)=\frac{1}{2}(x-4) \\ y+3=\frac{1}{2}x-2 \\ y=\frac{1}{2}x-2-3 \\ y=\frac{1}{2}x-5 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the equation in slope-intercept form for the line is,

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-5$
