Question

Write an equation for the line through the point (1,3) parallel to

the line y =
1/2x + 10.

Answer 1

Answer is, y=3 hope that helps

y=3

Answer 2

y=1/2x+5/2

Explanation:

The slope will not change if the line is parallel.

So start with 1/2x and plug in 1.

You will get 1/2 and you need to get a total of 6/2 to get a y of 3.

since you already have 1/2 the remanding value needed is 5/2 and once you add the two you will get 6/2 which equals a y of 3.
