Consider the point A = (1,3) and the line B, given by the equation y = 2x-2. Write an equation in slope intercept form of the line passing through point A and parallel to line B.

Please help!

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is

Explanation:

The point A is

The equation of line for B is given by

We need to determine the equation of line in slope intercept form passing through the point A and parallel to line B.

Since, the lines of equation are parallel, their slopes are same.

Thus, the slope is

Now, let us substitute the point and slope in the slope - point formula, we have,

Thus, the equation of the line in slope - intercept form is

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
