The equation 2x + 7 represents a north path on a map. Find the equation for a path that passes through the point (6, 3) and is parallel to the north path.

The correct answer is: y = 2x - 9

• We have been given an equation that represents the north path on a map.
• We have to find an equation for a path that passes through the point (6, 3) and is perpendicular to the north path.

Step 1 of 1:
We have given a line passes through a point (6, 3) and parallel to a line y = 2x + 7
Since two parallel lines have same slope.
So, Slope of the line will be 2
Therefore the equation of the line will be

y - 3 = 2(x - 6)
y = 2x - 9
