Answer:
y=3/5x - 14
Explanation:
y=35x−8 ; (−15,−23)
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
y=35x−8
Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is 35
.
m=35
To find an equation that is parallel to y=35x−8
, the slopes must be equal. Using the slope of the equation, find the parallel line using the point-slope formula.
(−15,−23)
m=35
Using the point-slope form y−y1=m(x−x1)
, plug in m=35, x1=−15, and y1=−23
.
y−(−23)=35⋅(x−(−15))
Simplify to get the point-slope formula.
y+23=35(x+15)
Solve for y
.
y=35x−14
