Question

write the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and is parallel to the line Y=3x+6

Answer 1

y = 3x - 5

Explanation:

7 = 3(4) + b

---> b = -5

y = 3x - 5

Answer 2

Explanation:

plug in the points minus the constant for 7=3*4 + x and you will get -5 for your constant

y=3x - 5
