Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (3,-2) and is parallel to the line y = -x - 5

y = -x + 1

y = x - 5

y = x + 1

y =-x -5

Answer 1

y=-x +1 because when lines are parallel they have the same slope and in this case both y=-x-5 and y=-x+1 have a slope of -1
