Answer:
[tex]y=3x-17[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel equations always share a slope.
So since we know the slope and a point the equation needs to pass through we can plug in the values and replace -8 with [tex]b[/tex]
[tex]-5=3(4)+b[/tex]
simplify both sides
[tex]-5=12+b[/tex]
isolate the variable
[tex]-17=b[/tex]
plug [tex]b[/tex] back into the equation and you get
[tex]y=3x-17[/tex]
Answer:
y = 3 x + 11
Explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slopes.
The slope of the new line will have the same slope as the given line:
y = 3 x − 4
⇒ m = 3
One point on the line is given,
( − 2 5 ) .
This is ( x 1 y 1 )
The formula for slope is
m = ( change in y values/ change in x-values ) = y 2 − y 1/ x 2 − x 1
If you have the slope and one point , substitute them into a formula which is based on the formula for slope given above.
y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 )
y − 5 = 3 ( x − ( − 2 ) )
y − 5 = 3 ( x + 2 )
Simplify to get the required equation of the line.
y = 3 x + 6 + 5
y = 3 x + 11
