Question

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-2, 3) and is parallel to the line y = 2.c – 4.

Answer 1

• y = 2x + 7

Explanation:

We know that:

• Point given: (-2, 3)
• Parallel Line: y = 2x - 4

We know that if two lines are parallel, then their slopes must be the same. However, their y-intercepts are different. Using the graph I made, we can identify the original line. Looking at the graph, we can conclude that the y-intercept is 7.

Hence, the equation of the line is y = 2x + 7.
