Question

What is an equation of the line that is parallel to y= -4x-5 and passes through the point (-2,6)?

Answer 1

y = -4x - 2

Explanation:

Answer 2

y = -4x - 2

Explanation:

This line y= -4x-5 has slope = -4

Parallel line, slope is the same so slope of the new line is also = -4

Passes through the point (-2,6), equation:

y - 6 = -4(x + 2)

y - 6 = -4x - 8

y = -4x - 2

Answer:

y = -4x - 2
