Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (-3, 1) and parallel to y = -x - 4.

y = x + 2

y = -x - 2

y = -x + 4

y = x - 4

For lines to be parallel, the slopes must be the same. Can you narrow the choices down using that information?

joannablackwelder · Answer

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

i dont really understand that @JoannaBlackwelder

anonymous · Answer

YOu first must draw a graph.

anonymous · Answer

my teacher said i didn't a graph she just told me to choose a,b,c or d

anonymous · Answer

She must have been wrong. But I would do is graph what it says.

anonymous · Answer

okay , can you help me narrow down the answers?

anonymous · Answer

YEs, I'll try. Create a graph and put in the coordinates, then show me.
