Question 748620: the straight line1 has an equation y=2x+3
the straight line2 is parallel to the straight line1
the straight line2 passes through the point (3,2)
Find the equation of the straight line2

y = 2x + 3
The second line must have
the same gradient as the first
line if it is parallel to it
i.e. 2
Using y - b = m(x - a)
y - 2 = 2(x - 3)
y - 2 = 2x - 6
y = 2x - 6 + 2
y = 2x - 4
