Question

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the line

y = 3x + 3 and passes through the point (10,1). Write the
equation in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

y = 3x -29

Explanation:

The parallel line will have the same slope: 3. The y-intercept can be found from ...

b = y -mx

b = 1 -(3)(10) = 1 -30 = -29

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

y = 3x -29
