The line l cuts the y-axis at (0, 5). l also passes through the point (2, 1). find the equation of the line which is parallel to l and which passes through the point (3, 0).

Answer :

Answer: [tex]y=-2x+6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of line l is

[tex]\frac{5-1}{0-2}=-2[/tex]

Since parallel lines have the same slope, the slope of the line we need to find is -2.

Substituting into point-slope form,

[tex]y=-2(x-3)\\\\y=-2x+6[/tex]
