Question

PLEASE HELP!!!!

Find the line parallel to y = 4x - 8 that includes the point (6, 14).
Simplify and solve for y.
y - 14 = 4(x-6)

y=_x+_​

Answer 1

y=4x-10

Explanation:

We know that when a line is parallel to another line, the slopes are the same. So, the slope of the new line will also be "4x".

Remember the equation:

y=mx+b

and we can use the equation:

`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`

Substitute:

`y-14=4(x-6)`

simplify

`y-14=4x-24`

add 14 to both sides

`y=4x-10`

So, your new equation is:

y=4x-10

Hope this helps! :)
