Question

Find the equation of the line that passes through the point (3,5) and is parallel to the equation of the line y=2×-5

​

Answer 1

y=2x-1

Explanation:

Since it is parallel to y=2x-5, they have the same slope of 2.

Now you're going to plug the point and slope into the following equation: y-(y value of point) = slope ×(x-(x value of point))

y-5= 2 (x-3)

Now you simplify:

y-5=2x -6

y=2x-1
