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)?

Respuesta :

Answer:

y+1=3(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

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

y=3x+b

-1=3(-1)+b

b=-2

y=3x-2

Convert to point slope form:

y+1=3(x+1)

Answer:

[tex]y=3x+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The given line passes through the points (0,-3) and (2,3).

To Find: 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)?

Solution:

Points : (0,-3) and (2,3).

To find the equation of given points we will use two point slope form

Formula : [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]  --A

Where m is the slope

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex](x_1,y_1)=(0,-3)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2)=(2,3)[/tex]

So, [tex]m = \frac{3-(-3)}{2-0}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 3[/tex]

Now substitute the values in A

[tex]y+3=3(x-0)[/tex]  

[tex]y+3=3x[/tex]  

Two lines are said to be parallel when they have same slope

So, The line parallel to the given line will have slope =3

General form of equation of line = [tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

Substitute m = 3

So, parallel line : [tex]y=3x+c[/tex]  ---B

Now this parallel lines passes through point (-1,-1)

So, substitute this point in B

[tex]-1=3(-1)+c[/tex]

[tex]-1=-3+c[/tex]

[tex]2=c[/tex]

Substitute value of c in B

So, Equation of parallel line = [tex]y=3x+2[/tex]

Hence the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (-1,-1) is  [tex]y=3x+2[/tex]
