What is the equation to the parallel of 7x-y=8 passing through the point (-2,3)

Sagot :

Answer:

y =7x + 17

Step-by-step explanation:

7x-y=8

y = 7x - 8......convert to slope intercept form

m = 7

parallel lines have the same slope

put in point slope form using the points of the equation of the line that you want to find

y - 3 = 7(x+2)

y -3 = 7x + 14.........distribute

y = 7x +14 + 3.........add 3 to both sides

y = 7x +17................simplify
