Question
Find an equation in slope–intercept form of a line with the given characteristics.Parallel to $y=\frac{2}{3} x+5 ;$ contains $(-2,-9)$
Step 1
The slope of this line is $\frac{2}{3}$. Since parallel lines have the same slope, the slope of the line we are trying to find is also $\frac{2}{3}$. Show more…
