Question

Write the equation of the line parallel to the line 4x y = -1 and passing through the point (5,0).

Answer 1

4x + y = -1
y = -4x -1

slope of the parallel line
m = -4
General equation of the parallel line
y = -4x + c
if this passes through (5,0)
0 = (-4*5) + c
c = 20

so the equation is
y = -4x + 20
