Question

Write an equation for line L in point-slope form and slope-intercept form.

L is parallel to y=5x

Answer 1

See below.

Explanation:

Because L is parallel to y = 5x, it must also have slope 5.

Point-slope form: we are given the point (2, -4), so the equation of line L is
`y + 4 = 5(x-2)`.

Simplifying this, we get the slope-intercept form: y = 5x - 14
