Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y=2x+3 and passes through the point (1,4)

Answer 1

y=2x +2

parallel lines have the same slope = coefficient of the x term when the equation is solved for y.

y=2x + b. plug in the point to find b

4=2(1) + b

b =2

the parallel line is y=2x+2
