Write the equation of the line that passes
through (-6,4) and is parallel to y=1/3x-1.


Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (1/3)x - 1

m = 1/3

Parallel lines have same slope. m = 1/3

(-6 , 4)

In y = mx + b equation, plugin the values x = -6 , y = 4 and m = 1/3

[tex]4 = \dfrac{1}{3}*(-6) + b\\\\\\4 = -2 + b \\\\\4 + 2 = b\\\\b = 6[/tex]

Equation:   y = mx + b

[tex]y = \dfrac{1}{3}x + 6[/tex]
