Algebra.Com's Answer #351091 by mananth(16949) You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = 2 x + 6 \n" ); document.write( "Compare this equation with y=mx+b \n" ); document.write( "slope m = 2 \n" ); document.write( "The slope of a line parallel to the above line will be the same \n" ); document.write( "The slope of the required line will be 2 \n" ); document.write( "m= 2 ,point ( 1 , 1 ) \n" ); document.write( "Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in y=mx+b \n" ); document.write( "1 = 2.00 + b \n" ); document.write( "b= -1 \n" ); document.write( "m= 2 \n" ); document.write( "Plug value of the slope and b in y = mx +b \n" ); document.write( "The required equation is y = 2 x -1 \n" ); document.write( " y = 2 x -1 \n" ); document.write( "m.ananth@hotmail.ca \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
