A line is parallel to y = 3x - 12 and
intersects the point (1, -2). What is the
equation of this parallel line?
y = [?]x + [ ]
Hint: Use the Point-Slope Form: y - y1 = m(x - X1)
Then write the equation in slope-intercept form.

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 12 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (1, - 2 ) into the partial equation

- 2 = 3 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 3 = - 5

y = 3x - 5 ← equation of parallel line
