Question

Write the equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that contains

the given point. Use the point-slope form of the equation of a line.*
(-3,4) y=-x-11

Answer 1

x + y - 1 = 0

Explanation:

y = -x - 11

therefore its slope is -1

x1= -3

y1 = 4

m = -1

from, y - y1 = m(x -x1)

y - 4 = -1(x + 3)

y -4 = -x -3

x + y -1 = 0
