Question

Write an equation of the line passing through point P(0, -1) that is parallel to the line y = - 2x+3.

Answer 1

`y=-2x-1`

Explanation:

If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. In this case, it is -2

Using point-slope form, with a slope of -2 going to through point P(0,-1)
We have:

y+1=-2x

y = -2x - 1
