Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
Answer to Problem 5CT
The equation of the line is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The line is parallel to line
Calculation:
Formula :
In general slope intercept equation of a line is,
where
The slope of line
Since all parallel lines have the same slope so 3 is also the slope of the line parallel to line
Substituting
Since line passes through (-2,-8) so substituting -2 for
The equation of the line in slope-intercept formhas slop of 3 and y-intercept is -2is,
