Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,3) and is parallel to the line whose equation is y = 3/2x - 4

Answer 1

y = 3/2x + 6

Explanation:

y = 3/2x - 4

y-intercept through point (-2, 3):

3 = 3/2(-2) + b

3 = -3 + b

b = 6

Equation of line:

y = mx + b

y = 3/2x + 6

**Parallel line share the same slope, in this case 3/2.
