Question

What line is parallel to the line 8x+2y=12

Answer 1

There are an infinite number of solutions to this queston, but you can find an answer by writing:

8x+2y = k ; where k is any number but 12.

Explanation:

Answer 2

y = 4x (? See parentheses in explanation)

Explanation:

First, change this equation to slope-intercept form.

1. 8x + 2y = 12
2. 2y = 8x +12
3. y = 4x + 6

Then, look at the slope and that is the slope of the parallel line.

(I don't know if the line is supposed to pass through a specific point, but if it does, then use point-slope form.)
