Question

Write an equation of the line. Write the equation in the form x = a, y = b, or y = mx + b.
-Through  (4,7) ;  parallel to  y=5 x-6 
A)  y=5 x+27 
B)  y=-5 x-13 
C)  y=5 x-13 
D)  y=5 x+7

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The line parallel to y = 5x - 6 will have the same slope, which is 5. Using the point (4,7) and the slope 5, the equation is y - 7 = 5(x - 4), which simplifies to y = 5x - 13.
