Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation.
(-3,-2); y = - 4x + 5

Answer 1

Answer:

y=-4x-14

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel would have the same slope, so the slope is

m= -4

Use point slope equation to solve for the slope intercept equation.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

m= -4

x= -3

y= -2

y-(-2)=-4(x-(-3))

y+2=-4x-12

y=-4x-14
