Straight line A has the equation y = 3x + 2. Find the equation of the line parallel to A and goes through the point (3,8)

y = 3x - 1

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 + 2 ← 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 (3, 8 ) into the partial equation

8 = 9 + c ⇒ c = 8 - 9 = - 1

y = 3x - 1 ← equation of parallel line
