Question

Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point (4, -6) and is parallel to y = -one halfx + 5.

Answer 1

y=-0.5x+5. What is the slope?

Answer 2

the slope is 5.5? @larryboxaplenty

Answer 3

y = one halfx - 8

Answer 4

The slope is next to the x, so it is (-1/2), or -0.5.

The slope of two parallel lines are the same, so...

Answer 5

y=-0.5x-8 is parallel, yes

Answer 6

so I got it right

Answer 7

@larryboxaplenty

Answer 8

y = one halfx - 8
