Question

Geometry help, please! Will give medal


2)
Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (8,4) and is parallel to the like y=4x+2

* y= 4x -28
* y= 4x + 28
* y= 1/4x -2
* y= 1/4 x +2

Answer 1

Use graphing online by doing a Google search on Demoso Graphing

Answer 2

Then graph each equation above and see if it matches what the question is asking

Answer 3

Answer 4

since required line is parallel to y=4x+2
Comparing y=4x+2 by y= mx+c we find slope m = 4
So, Slope of the required line which is paralle to y=4x+2 would be = -1/4
Since line passes through (8,4). therefore eq of line in slope point form is given as;
\[\huge y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\] where x1= 8 and y1= 4
\[\huge \rightarrow y-4 =-\frac {1}{4}(x-8)\]
\[\huge \rightarrow y-4 =-\frac {1}{4}x +2\]
\[\huge \rightarrow y-4 =-\frac {1}{4}x +2 + 4\]
\[\huge \rightarrow y =-\frac {1}{4}x +6\]

Answer 5

Which is the required answer...

Answer 6

Answer 7

hmm, parallel lines dont have perpendicular slopes

Answer 8

the 'required' answer relies in the askers participation in finding the solution.

otherwise, fancy writing of equations that are incorrectly applied to a problem simply doesnt help out.
