(6,5), 7x-3y=5 find the equation of the line that contains the given point and is parallel to the line. write the equation in slope intercept form

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = (7/3)x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert given equation to y=mx+b form --> y = (7/3)x - 5/3

2. Equation of new line --> y = (7/3)x + b

  • Note: 7/3 is the slope and for lines to be parallel they need the same slope so both equations have 7/3.

3. Plug in given values --> 5 = (7/3)(6) + b

4. Solve for b --> b = 5 - 14    b = -9

5. New line --> y = (7/3)x - 9
