Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (2, 3) and is parallel to the line y = 5/8x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a equation of the line is:

Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept-

If the lines are parallel then they have the same slope:

You can find the value of b by substituting the point given and the slope into the equation and solving for b:

Then the equation is:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to write the slope intercept form of the equation which passes through the point (2, 3) and is parallel to the line .

We know that the standard (slope-intercept) form of an equation of a line is given by:

where is the slope and is the y-intercept.

Since we are to find the equation of the line parallel to the given equation so its slope will be same as of .

Finding the y-intercept:

Therefore, the equation will be .
