Question

Find the linear function f that satisfies the given conditions:

passes through (-5, 6) and parallel to the line y = 4

Answer 1

you are looking for a straight line that has an equation in the form

y = mx + b

m = the slope of the line, b = the y-intercept

the line y = 4 has a slope of zero

so your point is

y = 0x + b

to find b, just substitute the x and y values from the point.

Then you'll have the equation of your line.
