Slopes and Writing Equations

For the equation
y - 3 = 2(x + 4),
the line has a slope of 2 and contains what point?

• (-4, 3)

• (3, -4)

• (-3, -4)

• (-4, -3)

• y= 3/4 x + 3
• y= 1/2 x +3
• y= 2x+3
• y=2x-7

Write the equation in point-slope form for the line that contains the points
(-2, -3), (4, 3)

• y - 3 = 1(x - 2)

• y + 3 = 1(x + 2)

• y -3 = -1(x + 2)

• y + 3 = -1(x - 2)

Slopes of parallel lines are...

• opposite reciprocals.

• opposites.

• identical.

• always 7.
