Identify an equation in slope-intercept form for the line parallel to y=-3x + 7
that passes through (2,-4).

Answer 1

y = -3x + 2

Explanation:

Parallel means same slope which is -3

Step 1: Use point slope form

(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

(y - (-4)) = -3(x - 2)

y + 4 - 4 = -3x + 6 - 4

y = -3x + 2

Answer: y = -3x + 2
