Question

Select the equation of the line, in standard form, that passes through (4, 2) and is parallel to the line shown on the coordinate grid.

Answer 1

Answer: $y-2=3(x-4)\\y=3x-12+2\\-3x+y=-10\\3x-y=10$

Step-by-step explanation:

I showed the steps to find the equation. In case you need to know, I used point-slope form, which involves using the formula y-y1=m(x-x1), in which you use a point like (4,2) and the slope, which we know is 3x since it's parallel to the original line. Simplifying and bringing it to standard form such as Ax+By=C. Ax has to be positive, which is why -3x went to positive, and y and -10 switched signs.
