<PRE><B>Question 908717</B>
Write the equation of the line described.. through (3,0) parallel to y=-1/8x+2
----
slope of the given equation:: -1/8
----
slope of the desired equation:: -1/8
---
Form: y = mx + b
Solve for &quot;b&quot;::
0 = (-1/8)3 + b
b = 3/8
---------------------
Equation:
y = (-1/8)x + (3/8)
