Question

Which of the following is the equation of a line parallel to the line y = 4x + 1, passing through the point (5,1)?
4x + y = -19
4x - y = 19
-4x - y = 19
4x + y = 19

Answer 1

make sure you get the variable y alone on one side of the equation, as a positive variable

Answer 2

do you need me to show you how to do that though

Answer 3

It would be 4x - y = 19

as they must have the same slope to be parallel. this is the only equation where y=4x

Answer 4

well, lexi won't learn that way
no offence though
some people get offended

Answer 5

pretty sure that's up to her to decide. I give a brief explanation that should really be understandable.

Answer 6

I know
I was just trying to see if she understood how to solve it
