The equation for line u can be written as y=2x+6. line v is parallel to line u and passes through (-1,-1). what is the equation of line v?

Line v has equation y = 2x+1======line u has equation  and it is parallel to line v.line u has a slope of 2.parallel lines have the same slope; therefore, line v also has a slope of 2.the point-slope equation of a line with a slope  and a point on the line  is    let's fit this to line v.since the slope of line v is 2,      since line v has the point  ,  and      subtracting by a negative number is the same as adding    technically you are done, but if you want point-slope form: you can distribute the 2 inside the parentheses.    subtract 1 from both sides    line v has equation y = 2x+1
