Question

Write the slope intercept form of each equation of the line. Use a fraction for slope if needed.

Parallel to y=−x+5, through (2, 4)

Answer 1

y=-x+6

Explanation:

Start by graphing y=-x+5. Then mark the point (2,4) for easier reference. A parallel line just has the same slope, so if you make another line with the same slope, and change the y-intercept until the line goes through (2,4), you will have the answer.
