Which equation represents a line passes through point p and is parallel to line m?

Y+2 = 2 (x-3)


Determine the equation of a line with the x-intercept -2 and parallel to 27 - 3x -1 The answer is y -23x - 2 BUT you have no clue how to get that you can do it for y ints not x please answer?

If you have a line, such as y=mx+b, in slope intercept form, you know that any line parallel to it has slope m also. It does not matter what the y intercept is, if slope is m, it will be parallel to the original line. Example: y=3x+2, than any line with slope 3 is parallel, so y=3x+15 is parallel. If you have a specific y intercept, say 29, than the parallel line will be y=3x+29 I can't read you equation well enough to understand them, but this should explain how to do it. So here is another example: A line parallel to y=4x+13 with y intercept 22 y=4x+22 is the answer.


What is the slope of a line that is parallel to y 5x 3?

It has the same slope as the line in the question. If a line has equation y = mx + c, its slope is m. If the line in question is y = 5x + 3, the slope of a parallel line is 5; If the line in question is y + 5x = 3 → y = -5x + 3 (subtract 5x from both sides), the slope of a parallel line is -5.


How does the graph of the line change as you make b larger but keep m the same?

The equation of a line is y = mx + b. If the slope of the line (m) stays the same, the line will be parallel to the original line. What changing b does is change the y-intercept of the line, because when you make x = 0, y = b. So by making b larger, you are moving the line up the y axis.


Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point y equals 12x-8 2-15?

So the given line is y=12x-8 and the given point is x=2 y=15? 15=12*2+m m=-9 y=12x-9

When given an equation of a line an a point not on that line what are the steps to writing an equation that's through that point and parallel to that line?

If you represent the original straight line on a graph using Cartesian co-ordinates, it's equation will be y=mx+c where y and x are the variables and m and c are constants. (m will equal the gradient of the line. c will be the point where the line cuts through the y axis). Your new line, parallel to the original will be y=mx +c +d where d is the vertical distance between the point and the original line.


Line l is parallel to line m line l is perpendicular to line p what conclusions can be drawn about the relationship between lines m and p?

Lines are parallel if they are perpendicular to the same line. Since the lines m and l are parallel (given), and the line l is perpendicular to the line p (given), then the lines m and p are perpendicular (the conclusion).

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line containing the points -4 -9 and 3 -6?

The slope, m, of a line given 2 points is: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). m = (-6 - (-9)) /(3-(-4)) or 3/7. Therefore parallel line slope is 3/7.


For the line given by y2x find the slope of a line that is Parallel m Perpendicular m?

The line y = 2x If you put it into the form y = mx + b, you have y = 2x + 0 so the slope is 2. Lines parallel to that line have the same slope, 2. Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1. The slope of a perpendicular line to a line of slope 2 would be -1/2.
