Answer:

The equation to a line parallel to x = 4 including that point is x = -6.

Explanation:

In order to find the value of this equation, we first need to see the value of the slope. Since the original equation is x = 4, we know that the slope is undefined (a vertical line). Therefore, the parallel line must also be vertical.

A vertical line going through (-6, 1) would have to be x = -6, otherwise it would not hit the point.
