Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line described. Do not include any spaces.

Through (-4,-2) and parallel to y=x+5.

Answer 1

y=x+2

Explanation:

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=1(x-(-4))

y+2=x+4

y=x+4-2

y=x+2

Parallel lines have same slopes.

Answer 2

Y = 0x + b

2 = 0 + b, b = 2

Y = 2
