The given line passes through the points (0, −3) and (2, 3).

What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (−1, −1)?


y + 1 =(Blank)

(x + 1)

Answer:

The equation would be y + 1 = 3(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation of this line, we have to use the slope formula to find the slope.

m (slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (3 - -3)/(2 - 0)

m = (3 + 3)/(2 - 0)

m = 6/2

m = 3

Now that we have that, we can use it along with the second point to put into the point-slope equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - -1= 3(x - -1)

y + 1 = 3(x + 1)
