Question

What is the equation, in the point-slope form, of the line that is parallel to the given and passes through the point (-1,-1)?

Answer 1

D. y+1=3(x+1)

Answer 2

y + 1 = 3(x+ 1)

Explanation:

(2,3) , (0 ,-3)

Slope =
`(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))`

`= (-3-3)/(0-2)\\\\=(-6)/(-2)\\\\= 3`

m = 3

Parallel lines have same slope.

m = 3; (-1 , -1)

y -y1 = m (x -x1)

y -[-1] = 3(x -[-1])

y + 1 = 3(x+ 1)
