Write the equation of the line that passes through point (-10, -5) and is parallel to the line represented by the equation y = -2x + 7.

y + 5 = -2(x + 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the line parallel, we need the same slope as the line. Because it is in slope-intercept form, we know that the slope, or , equals -2.

Also, because we have the point that it passes through, we have enough information to put the values into point-slope form, which is:

y + 5 = -2(x + 10)

The reason I made the subtraction signs to addition signs is because a negative times a negative equals a positive.

6, 10

9, -13

12, -21

18, -23

step-by-step explanation:

you just add 6 to the x-coordinate and subtract 10 from the y-coordinate.
