Write equation line that passes through (2,2) and is parallel to line y=3x+9 An equation of parallel line is y=___

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is in the given line. It is the number in front of the x which is 3.

So far what you have is

y = 3x + b

Now use the point to find b

x = 2

y = 2

Substitute

y = 3*2 + b

2 = 6 + b

2 - 6 = b

b = - 4

y = 3x - 4

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
