Find the equation of the line that passes through (2, -3) and is parallel to y = -3/8x + 2

Sagot :

Answer:

y = -3/8x - 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the equation is parallel to y = -3/8x + 2, the slope of our equation will also be -3/8

So our equation can be written as:

y = -3/8x + b

To find 'b', we can plug in the point (2, -3) into the equation:

-3 = -3/8 * 2 + b

b = 3/4 - 3 = -9/4

So our final equation becomes:

y = -3/8x - 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

answer is -3.5........
