the equation of the line that is parallel to y=-3x+2 and goes through (1,5) is slope intercept form
Answer:
y = -3x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Any two lines that are parallel have the same slope.
A fast way to find the y-intercept, b, is to start with y = mx + b and substitute 5 for y, 1 for x and -3 for m. Then:
5 = -3(1) + b, or b = 8.
Then the desired equation is y = -3x + 8.
