Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y = 1/2 x-7 that
passes through (-3,-2).

m= 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

i think you could take 1/2 and multiply it by -3,-2 and get yor answer or you could use 1/2

The equation of the line that is parallel to the line  and passes through the point (-3, -2) is

Solution:

Given that the line passes through point (-3, -2)

The line is parallel to  

First let us find the slope of line, the point slope form is given as,

where "m" is the slope of line

Comparing the (1) with (2) we get, m=\frac{1}{2}

The slopes of parallel lines are always equal. Hence the slope of line passing through (-3, -2) has the same slope as m=\frac{1}{2}

Now plug in m=\frac{1}{2} and in (2) to get the required equation of line,

Thus, the equation of line parallel to given line is
