Question

Find the equation of the line that has the given properties

parallel to the line y = 2x - 7, passes through (-1,4)

Answer 1

Answer:
`y-4=2(x+1)`

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the line we want to find is 2.

Substituting into point-slope form, the equation is
`y-4=2(x+1)`.
