Question

Parallel to the line y= 3x -1; passes through (-2,-8)

Answer 1

We have the slope-intercept form of a line

`y=mx+b`

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Parallel line have the same slope so the slope of the line that we are searching is m=3

so we will use the slope-point form

`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`

where

m=3

x1=-2

y1=-8

then we substitute the values

`y+8=3(x+2)`
