Solution
Equation of the line passing through (1, 2) and parallel to the line y = 3x – 1 is y – 2 = 3 (x – 1).
Explanation:
Given equation is y = 3x – 1
Slope = 3
Slope of the line passing through the given point (1, 2) and parallel to the given line = 3
So, the equation of the required line is y – 2 = 3(x – 1)
