Question

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 3, 3) and (negative 2, 1). A point is at (4, 1). What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (4, 1)?

Answer 1

y = -2x + 9

Explanation:

(1-3)/(-2--3) = -2/1 = -2 = m

y = mx + b

1 = -2(4) + b

9 = b

y = -2x + 9
