Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line described by (−1, −1), parallel to y = −2x − 4.

Answer 1

y=-2x-3

Explanation:

(−1, −1), parallel to y = −2x − 4.

y-y,=m(x-x,)

insert the numbers into their places

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

use distributive property and simplify down

y+1= -2x-2

subtract 1 from each side

y= -2x-3
