Problema Solution

Use the point-slope formula to write n equation of the line given the following information. Give your answer (if possible) in:

a. slope-intercept form

b. standard form

3. The line passes through the point (4,-1) and is parallel to the line y=3x+1

Answer provided by our tutors

the slope has to be 3 becase parallel lines have the same slop.

formula is y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m = 3

y +1 = 3(x - 4)

a. y + 1 = 3x - 12

y = 3x - 13

b. -3x + y = -13
