Question

Find the equation of the line

Answer 1

y=2x+12

m=2
6=2(-3)+b
b=12
y=2x+12

Answer 2

y= 2x +12

Explanation:

Given:

• line y= 2x -7
• the point (-3. 6)

The line parallel to the given has the same slope of 2, let's find the intercept using the given point:

• y= 2x+b
• 6= 2*(-3)+b
• b= 6+6= 12

So the equation is:

• y= 2x +12
