how do you do contains point (0,4) and is parallel to y=2x-3? (characteristics of linear functions)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Since your new line is parallel to
\n" ); document.write( "y=2x-3
\n" ); document.write( "it MUST have the same slope.
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of
\n" ); document.write( "y=2x-3
\n" ); document.write( "is 2
\n" ); document.write( "this is from inspection because the equation is already in \"slope-intercept\" form:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Given slope is 2 and one point (0,4)
\n" ); document.write( "plug into \"point-slope\" form:
\n" ); document.write( "y - y1 = m(x - x1)
\n" ); document.write( "y - 4 = 2(x - 0)
\n" ); document.write( "y - 4 = 2x
\n" ); document.write( "y = 2x + 4 (this is what they're looking for)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
