Question

(-6,1),4x+y=7

Answer 1

(x,y), so -6 = x, and 1=y. plug in the values for x and y in the equation

Answer 2

then solve

Answer 3

thank you but i got y=-4x-23 an i wanted to know if it was right

Answer 4

how did you get that? It's wrong.
4x + y =7
4(-6) + (1) = 7
PS> this isn't a true solution. what's the question?

Answer 5

(-6,1),4x+y=7

Answer 6

What's is this from? It does make sense for the question to just be that. What are you supposed to be learning/doing?

Answer 7

write an equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel

Answer 8

Oh, well that explains it. I was gdoign the wrong thing!
First, rearrange the equation so it is in the right format.
y = -4x + 7
Parallel lines have equal slopes. So the new equation has to have -4 as the slope too.
y = -4x + b
Plug in (-6,1) into the equation and solve for b
then, plug the value of b you found into the equation y = -4x + b, and you have your answer.

Answer 9

ok thank you so much

Answer 10

you're welcome
