Question

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the given point. y = x + 8; (4, 10)

A. y = x

B. y = x + 6

C. y = x – 6

D. y = x + 6

i choose c but i got it wrong

Answer 1

the given point does not belong to the line you've chosen

Answer 2

can u show me

Answer 3

the line is of the form y=ax+b
since this line is parallel to y=x+8 then it has the same slope
so a=1=>y=x+b
now (4;10) belongs to this line =>10=4+b=>b=6
so the answer is y=x+6 which isB.

Answer 4

thanks
