Write an equation of the line parallel to Line AB that contains point C.
Line AB: y = -5x + 12; C(-2, 1)
Answered by Steve
a line with slope m containing (h,k) is

y-k = m(x-h)

Now plug in your values.

can you show me how to do this step by step please?
Answered by Steve
I just did! The line AB has slope -5.

So, any line parallel AB also has slope -5.

The line you want is thus

y-1 = -5(x+2)
