what is the equation 6x-y=1 and goes through the points (-5,-5) and is a parallel line?
------------------------
Rearrange the given equation:
y = 6x-1
slope of this line is 6.
-------------------------------
So you want the equation of a line that is parallel to
the given line and passes thru the point (-5,-5).
---------------
Form: y = mx+b
slope must be "6".
Since y = -5 when x = -5, solve for "b":
-5 = 6(-5)+b
-5 = -30 + b
b = 25
-------------------
Ans: y = 6x+25
