Question

This confuses me, Find the equation of the line through point (3,−3) and parallel to y=3x−4. Use a forward slash (i.e. "/") for fractions (e.g. 1/2 for 12). Y=

Answer 1

y = 3x - 12

Explanation:

`(3, - 3) \\ y = 3x - 4 \\ m \: = 3 \\ for \: parallelism \: m1 = m2 \\ (3, - 3)`

`x1 = 3 \\ y1 = - 3 \\ y - y1 = m(x - x1) \\ y - ( - 3) = 3(x - 3) \\ y + 3 = 3x - 9`

`y = 3x - 9 - 3 \\ y = 3x - 12`
