What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line y = 2x + 7 and passes through the point (-2, 4)?

y = 2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where c = intercept

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

Looking at the given line,

y = 2x + 7

Comparing with the slope intercept equation,

Slope, m = 2

If a line is parallel to another line, it means that both lines have equal or the same slope. This means that the slope of the line passing through the point (-2, 4) is 2

Substituting m= 2, y = 4 and x = -2 into the equation, y = mx + c , it becomes

4 = 2 × - 2 + c

4 = - 4 + c

c = 4 + 4 = 8

The equation becomes

y = 2x + 8

341

step-by-step explanation:

all you have to do is 9x31 (which equals 279) and then 20x31 (which equals 620). then you have to subtract. 620-279=341.
