What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (–2, 2)? y = x + 4 y = x + y = –5x + 4 y = –5x +

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

Step 1

Find the slope of the given line

we know that

the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

in this problem we have

substitute in the formula

Step 2

Find the equation of the line

we know that

the equation of the line into point-slope form is equal to

we have

substitute

therefore

the answer is

1. 3

2. 4

3. 1

hope this ! have a great day.
