Find an equation of the line that:

(a) Has the same y-intercept as the line.

(b) Is parallel to the line.

Asked by rororo

Answer (2)

You didn't describe the line. / / / / If the equation of the line is [ y = m x + b ] then [ y=(any number) x+b] has the same y-intercept, and [y=mx+any number] is parallel to it.

To find an equation of a line that has the same y-intercept as another line, use the same constant term in the equation while changing the slope. To find a line parallel to another, keep the same slope while changing the constant term. Both types of lines can be represented in the slope-intercept form y = m x + b .
