Question

what is the equation of a line that is parallel to x - 2y = -4 and passes through the point (0, 0) ?​

Answer 1

x - 2y = -4

x - 2y +4 = -4+4

x -2y +4= 0

x -2y +4 +2y= 0+2y

x+4 =2y

(x+4)/2 =2y/2

x/2 +2= y

slope of the line: 1/2 the point (0, 0)

(y-0)= (1/2)(x-0)

Answer: y= (1/2)x
