Question 21129: Write the equation of the line parallel to y=1/3x-4 with y-intercept of (0,-1)
Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If it is parallel, it has slope = m = 1/3
You now have m=1/3, x=0, y=-1
The line has equation y = mx+b
So, -1 = (1/3)(0)+b
Therefore, b = -1
Equation therefore is y = (1/3)x -1
