Example Question #341 : High School: Geometry

In slope intercept form, find the equation of the line parallel to  and goes through the point .

 

 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First step is to recall slope intercept form.

Where  is the slope, and  is a point on the line.

Since we want a line that is parallel, our slope () is going to be the same as the original equation.

So 

Then we substitute 7 for  and 8 for 

After plugging them in, we get.

Now we solve for 

 

 

Example Question #62 : Expressing Geometric Properties With Equations

In slope intercept form, find the equation of the line parallel to  and goes through the point .

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First step is to recall slope intercept form.

Where  is the slope, and  is a point on the line.

Since we want a line that is parallel, our slope () is going to be the same as the original equation.

So 

Then we substitute -4 for  and -6 for 

After plugging them in, we get.

Now we solve for 

 

 

Example Question #1 : Points That Partitions Segments In A Given Ratio: Ccss.Math.Content.Hsg Gpe.B.6

Find the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints of (10, 12) and (-4, -13).

 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

In order to find the midpoint between these end points, we need to recall the midpoint formula.

Where  is the mid point for  and  is the midpoint for .

Now we simply substitute values for 

To verify the result, plot the points on a graph.
