Question

Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (-4, -2) and parallel to y = 1/fourthx + 2.

y = 4x - 1

y = 4x - 3

y = 1/fourthx - 3

y = 1/fourthx - 1

Answer 2

when 32 lines are parallel to each other their slope are the same...so the slope of this line would be 1/4 too.

Answer 3

*2 lines not 32 lines XD

Answer 4

last one..D..

Answer 5

and u have slope and u only want y-intercept...do u have any idea how to solve it?

Answer 6

i have no idea how to do this lol but thanks

Answer 7

since parallel lines must have the same slope we know the slope will be 1/4. now plug everything into the equation
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-2)=1/4(x-(-4))
y+2=1/4(x+4)
y+2=1/4x+1
y=1/4x-1
D is the correct answer

Answer 8

oh..see step by step...1st find the slope of given eq ..
by comparing it with

y=mx+c here m=slope.

Answer 9

Answer 10

well i'll give you some :D .... now the equation is y = 1/4x + b which b= y-intercept...you have the point (-4,-2) so u can say -2 = (1/4)(-4) + b now solve for b

Answer 11

Yes ... @stupid12
