Question

Find the equation of the line that passes through (-18, -10) and is parallel to the line that passes through (-2, 2) and (-8, 1).
A.y =5/6x + 5
B. y=1/6x-7
C. y=6x+98
D. y=-2/3x-5

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 1/6x + 7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2 ,2) and (-8, 1)

Slope=(1-2)/(-8- - 2) = (-1/-6) = 1/6

b = 2 - (1/6)(-2) = 2 - 2/6 = 2 - 1/3 = 7/3
