Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = -1/4x -3 through the point (4,4)

answers are

Answer 1

we are given equation of line as

`y=-(1)/(4) x-3`

now, we can compare it with

`y=mx+b`

and then we can find slope

`m=-(1)/(4)`

we know that slopes of two parallel lines are always equal

so, slope of our line will also be

`m=-(1)/(4)`

so, we have only one option that has this slope

so,

option-B........Answer
