The Worthingtons love to travel, so when they retired they sold their house and purchased a motor home valued at $165,000. They tow their car, valued at $32,000 behind their motor home when they travel. The Worthingtons have medical bills totaling $1,300 and a balance of $3,000 on credit cards. Since they invested for retirement, the Worthingtons have $200,000 in investments and an additional $20,000 in their savings account. What is the Worthingtons’ net worth?

the equation of the parallel line would be y = 2x + 9

step-by-step explanation:

to start we need to find the slope of the original line. we can do that by looking at the coefficient of x, which is 2

since the slope of the original line is 2 and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line will also have 2 slope. now we can use that along with the point given in point-slope form to get the find equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 2(x + 2)

y - 5 = 2x + 4

y = 2x + 9
