Question

Line parallel to y=8-1/8x

Answer 1

Y = (-1/8) X + C is the equation of a line parallel to y=8-1/8x

Explanation:

Complete question.

Find the line parallel to y=8-1/8x

Solution

For two lines to be parallel to each other it is essential that their slopes must be same

For any line of the form

Y = mX +b

m is the slope

Here the equation of given line is y=8-1/8x

on rearranging, we get

Y = (-1/8) X + 8

here m = (-1/8)

Hence, line parallel to y=8-1/8x is any line with slope equal to (-1/8)

Or we can say that equation of parallel line would be

Y = (-1/8) X + C
