First, find for m (slope):
3x-y=1
-y= 1-3x
y=3x-1 , therefore m= 3
If lines in parallel to 3x-y=1, then the slopes are the same. So, plug in to equation .
Y-Y2= m(X-X2)
y-(-4)=3(x-2)
y+4=3x-6
y=3x-10
find an equation of the line that passes through (2,-4) and is parallel to the line 3x-y=1. Write your answer in the form y=mx+b. please help!
