P(3, 2), 2x − y = 5
Write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line. Write the answer in slope-intercept form
**
Standard form of equation for a straight line: y=mx+b, m=slope, b=y-intercept
2x − y = 5
y=2x-5
slope=2
..
Slope of line thru (3,2)=2
Equation: y=2x+b
solve for b using given point (3,2)
2=2*3+b
b=2-6=-4
equation: y=2x-4 (ans)
