Select the equation of the line parallel to the equation y=-4x-6 and that passes through the point (1, 2).

y=4x+6
y= - 4x +6
y = -4x - 4
y= 3x -1

Question

Select the equation of the line parallel to the equation y=-4x-6  and that passes through the point (1, 2).

y=4x+6
y= - 4x +6
y = -4x - 4
y= 3x -1

sohailiftikhar · Answer

here you just have to look at the slop of line which matches the given line 
because slop of parallel is same..

sohailiftikhar · Answer

so what you think know ? what's the answer ? :)

sohailiftikhar · Answer

this is the general equation 
y=mx+c here the coefficient of x is called slop ..

sohailiftikhar · Answer

the slop of given line is -4

surryyy · Answer

would it be b?

sohailiftikhar · Answer

now as there are two options with slop=-4 so we use the general formula to find equation by using given pionts x1=1 and y1=2 
y-y1/x-x1=-4
y-2/x-1=-4
y-2=-4x+4
y=-4x+6
yes it's b
