Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that is parallel to the line y = -4x + 5 and that passes through the given point (-8,5). Show your work.

Answer 1

Y=4x-27

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same gradient therefore it's-4

Y-5/X--8 =-4

Y-5=-4(x+8)

Y-5=-4x+-32

Y=-4x-32+5

Y=4x-27
