Q:

Identify the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is parallel to y = 2.5x + 5 and passes through (2, 3). y = 2.5x − 2 y = 5x − 13 y = 2.5x − 5.5

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:The answer to your question is:    y = 2.5x - 2The first option is correctStep-by-step explanation:DataParallel to y = 2.5x + 5Passes (2, 3)ProcessIf the lines are parallel, they have the same slope.slope = 2.5                      (y - y1) = m (x - x1)                      ( y - 3) = 2.5 (x - 2)                      y - 3 = 2.5x - 5                      y = 2.5x - 5 + 3                    y = 2.5x - 2
