Question 1131858: write an equation of a line parallel to the line y= -2x + b and passes through the point (-1,-3)
Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the line is -2
point slope formula--y-y1=m(x-x1), m slope, (x1, y1) point
y+3=-2(x+1)
y=-2x-5
graph of the line with the other line using b=+1, crossing y-axis at (0, 1)
