Question

Please help.

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point. y = –6x + 2; (–1, 2)

A. y = –6x – 4

B. y = –8x – 8

C. y = 6x – 8

D. y = –6x + 4

Answer 1

Its been a while since I took this course but I will try to help you!
Y=mx+b
Lets take a look at a.
You want to make sure the slope stays the same so that the line moves parallel so you leave m as it is but you want to change the b so that the lines don't intersect.
An answer could be.... y=-6x-3
So when dealing with a question like this all you have to do is change the y variable!
I hope I am corrrect and this was of help you, goodluck!
