Question

Which line is parallel to 2x - y = -3 and goes through (5, 5)?

​

Answer 1

F Y=1x+5 G Y=2x-5 H Y =x-3 J Y=2x+5

Answer 2

G. y=2x-5

Explanation:

First, find the slope from 2x-y=-3

-y=-2x-3

y=2x+3, which means that the slope is 2

Since it is parallel, the given equation and the line we are finding has the same slope.

let y=mx+b, where m=2, y=5, x=5

5=2(5)+b

5=10+b

-5=b

Thus, y=2x-5
