parrallel to y=2x+4 and containing the point (4,0) tell me what u got and your work I got y=2-x/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Help!! Give medals

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

It can't be y=2-x/2 because parallel lines have the same slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK so what did you get 2

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Yes, the slope is 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So where did I go wrong could you show me your work

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

Now plug in the x,y given and solve for the y-intercept.

OpenStudy (joannablackwelder):

To find the slope, there isn't any work. You just recognize that parallel lines have the same slope. Do you know where t find the slope of a line?
