Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form

Answer 1

y = -6x - 13

Explanation:

y = -6x + 1

The slope is -6x, so you want to keep that slope since the line must be parallel. The y-intercept will have to be different though.

Using this knowledge, the point that y = -6x + 1 gets to x-coordinate -3 is y-coordinate 19.

So now we need to figure out the y-intercept.

5 - 19 = -14

Now we must add the initial y-intercept to the answer here.

-14 + 1 = -13

This gives us our answer.
