Question

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to y = −2x and passes through the point (0,7).

A. y=2x–7
B. y=-2x + 7
C. y=-2x-7
D. y=2x+7

Answer 1

B.
`\displaystyle y = -2x + 7`

Explanation:

The y-intercept is given to us, which is
`\displaystyle [0, 7],`and Parallel Lines have SIMILAR RATE OF CHANGES [SLOPES], so −2 remains the way it is.
