Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the point (1, 0) and is parallel to x-y=7.

Answer 1

The slope-intercept form of x - y = 7 is y = x - 7. The slope of that line is 1. That means the slope of the line that also goes through (1, 0) is also 1. If you use the point-slope formula, the answer you will receive is y = x - 1.
