To write:The equation in the slope intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given equation.
Answer to Problem 11PT
The equation in the slope intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given equation is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The equation is
The line passes through the point
Calculation:
Calculate the slope of the first equation. The first equation is in the form of slope and intercept form. Comparing from the standard form of the equation
Calculate the slope of the second line which is parallel to the given line. The slope of two parallel lines is always equal.
Substituting the value of slope and point in the standard
Therefore, the equation in the slope intercept form for the line that passes through the point
