Question

find a slope and y- interception of the line that is parallel to y = -x - 1 and passes through the point (5, -5).

Answer 1

y = 0

Explanation:

hello :

note : the point-slope formula is :

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) for the line passes by the point A(x_1 ; y_1 ) , the slope is : m

in this exercice : m =- 1 parallel to y = -x - 1 (same slope -1)

x_1 = 5 and y_1 = - 5

an equation is : y+5 = - (x-5)

y- interception of the line when : x=0

y+5 = - (0-5)

y = 0
