Question

What is the equation of a line passing through the point (-4, 8) that is parallel to the line y = 2x + 6

Answer 1

b - y=2x+16

Explanation:

y=y1+m(x+x1)

(-4,8)

y=8+2(x-4)

y=8+2x-8

add 8 on both sides

y=2x+16

Answer 2

y = 2x + 16

Explanation:

slope is parallel and equal to y = 2x + 6

y intercept = 16
