Find the equation of the line passing through the point (-5,-8) and parallel to the line passing through (7,-5) and (6,-9).
i have m = (-9-(-5))/(6-7) = -4
then from y-y1 = m(x-x1) =
y-(-5) = -4(x-7) =
y+5 = -4x+28 =
y= -4x+23
then i plug in (-5,-8)
y-(-8) = -4(x-5) =
y = -4x-27
the answer is wrong can comeone help me with this?
