Question 714997: Find the equation of a line that is parallel to the line y= 17x and contains the points (2,-7) Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! When the equation of the line starts with y= on one side, the equation is in the unique slope-intercept from, and the number multiplied times x is the slope. in the slope-intercept form and the slope is .
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Based on point (2,-7), the equation of the line with slope and passing through that point can be written in point-slope form as -->
The equation can be transformed into the slope-intercept form --> --> -->
