Question

Parallel to y - 2x = 4 and passes through (0,5)

Answer 1

y=2x+5

Explanation:

y=2x+4 means that the slope is m1=2

A parallel line shall have the same slope so

m2=m1=2

Therefore, the equation of the new line will be

y=2x+q

where q is the y-intercept, that is 5 because the line must pass in (0,5), so

q=5

and

y=2x+5
