Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes

through the point (-2, 0) and is parallel to the line -y + 2x = 3 is

Answer 1

`y=-2x-4`

Step-by-step explanation:

1. the slope is the same because they're parallel

2. set up the equation, first with only variables, then fill in what you know. Since it passes through (-2,0), we know that the equation has to be true in that case. Now the only thing left to solve for is B

3. solve like any other equation

4. plug it into the original equation and change-2 and 0 back to x and y
