Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through point (-10, -5) and is parallel to the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 7 in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

y = 2x + 15

Explanation:

y = 2x + 7 (-10,-5)

find your b/ y-intercept

y = mx+b 2= slope

plug in your (x,y) points

-5 = 2(-10) + b

-5 = -20 + b

15 = b

y=2x + 15
