Question

Write an equation for a line parallel to y=-3x + 11 and goes through the point (2,4)

Answer 1

equation: y = -3x + 10

Explanation:

y = -3x + 11

comparing the formula, y = mx + b

We can determine the slope is -3 and y-intercept is 11.

if the line passes (2,4)

use the formula:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = -3(x - 2)

y = -3x + 6 +4

y = -3x + 10
