Question 612459: Write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the line. Express your answer in the form y=mx+b.
(7,8);x+2y=3. Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
Hi,
line containing the given point(7,8) and parallel to x+2y=3 OR y = x + 3/2
y = (-1/2)x + b ||Using Pt(7,8) to solve for b
8 = (-1/2)7 + b
23/2 = b
y = (-1/2)x + 23/2
