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