Write down the equation of the straight line which passes through (0, -3) and parallel to the straight line y = -2x+1​

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = -2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line:

   Parallel lines have same slope.

  y =  -2x + 1

Compare with the equation of line in slope intercept form y = mx + b

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

 m = -2

m = -2  ; line passes through (0 , -3)

Equation of line in slope intercept form:

             [tex]\sf \boxed{\bf y - y_1=m(x-x_1)}[/tex]

             y - [-3] = -2(x - 0)

                 y +3 = -2x

                       y = -2x - 3
