A because -1/4x is your slope and the +5 would just be shifted over to the 5 on the y-axis

Answer: y = -1/4x +5 (option A)

Explanation:

you should substitute the point in the equation so, you have to use "+c" instead of the "-3". the equation you have to use is y = -1/4x + c

(4,4)

y = -1/4x + c

4 = -1/4(4) + c

4 = -1 + c

4+1=c

c = 5

So the -3 in the equation should be replaced with 5 in the equation and that's the parallel line passing through the point (4,4)

therefore the equation is - y = -1/4x +5
