Question

4.(06.02 MC)

Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (3, 2) and is parallel to the line y = 3x - 4. (5 po
y = 3x + 7
y = 3x - 7
y =
x + 2
O y = fx-2

Answer 1

y = 3x-7

Explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same slopes.

y = 3x-4 ---> y=mx+b (slope = m=3)

point-slope formula for a line: y - y1 = m(x-x1)

slope=m=3

(3,2)----> (x1,y1)

y - 2 = 3(x-3)

y - 2 = 3x-9

y = 3x-7
