Question

I need help please! Parallel to y=9x+3, y-intercept at -2

Answer 1

y=9x-2

Explanation:

So, the zero value is -2 (in terms of y) so the coordinates would be (0,-2) But if a line is parallel to another line, it has the same slope as the other.

Therefore, the equation is

y=9x-2

Answer 2

y = 9x - 2

Explanation:

Parallel Lines: Parallel lines have the same slope but different y - intercepts

Line: Written in y = mx + b

• y = output
• x = input
• m = slope
• b = y - intercept

Solve:

• The slope of the new line is 9 because they are parallel
• The y - intercept is -2, it is given

Our new equation is:

• y = mx + b
• (Slope of 9) y = 9x + b
• (y - intercept is -2) y = 9x - 2

y = 9x - 2
