Answer:
y = -4x +7
Explanation:
First, we need to find the slope of the first equation
8x + 2y = 4
Subtract both sides by 8x
8x + 2y = 4
-8x -8x
2y = -8x + 4
Then divide both sides by 2 to isolate the variable, y
2y/2 = (-8x + 4)/2
y = -4x + 4
This means the slope is -4, so our other equation will need to have the slope of -4 to be parallel
y = -4x + ?
Wait, the equation also needs to be a line where it goes through (0,7)
Luckily, that just seems to be the y-intercept, so our work is cut out for us.
Here is our equation
y = -4x + 7
You can plug in the numbers to check
7 = -4(0) +7
7 = 0 + 7
7 = 7
