Algebra.Com's Answer #19789 by sarah_adam(201)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! slope intercept form of equation is y = mx+c \n" ); document.write( "where c = constant and m = slope \n" ); document.write( "since the equation of the line is parallel to y = (-5)x+(-4) \n" ); document.write( "so the equation will be y = = (-5)x+c \n" ); document.write( "since the equation passes through point (-2,3) \n" ); document.write( "-2 = (-5)(3)+c \n" ); document.write( "-2 = -15+c \n" ); document.write( "c = 15-2 = 13 \n" ); document.write( "therfore the required equation in slope intercep form is \n" ); document.write( "y = (-5)x + 13 \n" ); document.write( " |
