Question

What is the equation of the line, in standard form, that passes through (4, -3) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x + y - 2 = 0?

A. 4x - y = 13
B. 4x + y = 13
C. 4x + y = -13

I got A ?

Answer 1

close.

Answer 2

nope

Answer 3

ok, let take steps
4x +y-2=0--> 4x+y=2 ok?

Answer 4

now, replace the point (4,-3) to the left hand side
you have 4*4 +(-3) = 13,
so that 4x \(\color{red}{+} \) y =13

Answer 5

Oh so messed up on a step. it's supposed to be the plus sign instead of the minus?

Answer 6

yup
