Answer:

  • y -2 = -2(x -7) . . point-slope form
  • y = -2x+16 . . . . slope-intercept form
  • 2x +y = 16 . . . . standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line AB is ...

... m = (change in y)/(change in x) = (1-7)/(5-2) = -6/3 = -2.

Then in point-slope form, the parallel line through C will be ...

... y -2 = -2(x -7)
