Remember that a parallel line has the same slope...
So we already know the slope of the line containing point C is -4.

Using point slope equation, we can do...

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)
y-7= -4(x-4)
y-7- -4x+16
*Add seven to both sides...* y=-4x+23

There is you answer... hope this helps!

If a line is parallel to another line, both lines have the same slope. The slope of the line is -4, which means the slope of the parallel line would be -4.
Parallel lines never intersect, which means the y-intercept of the parallel line cannot be 5. The y-intercept of the parallel line is when x = 0. You know that one of the points of the new, parallel line is (4,7). So what happens if you use the slope to find the y-intercept? So you can take the point (4,7) and subtract 4 from the x-coordinate and add 16 to the y-coordinate (Remember, this is the slope because the change in y is 16, and the change in x is -4, making the slope -4). When you do this, then you get that the y-intercept is 23. Therefore, the equation for the line is y = -4x + 23.

2x−1/4y=1 solve for y please
Ivan

Answer:

EASY DUBS:

Step-by-step explanation:

2*x-((1/4)*y) = 1 // - 1

2*x-((1/4)*y)-1 = 0

2*x+(-1/4)*y-1 = 0

2*x-1/4*y-1 = 0 // + -1/4*y-1

2*x = -(-1/4*y-1) // : 2

x = (-(-1/4*y-1))/2

x = (1-(-1/4*y))/2

x = (1-(-1/4*y))/2

Graph B
lara [203]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = rise/run

y-intercept (b) = starting value or the point on the y-axis where the line cuts across

✔️Slope (m) of skater 1:

Rise = 45

Run = 7.5

Slope (m) = 45/7.5 = 6

✔️ y-intercept (b) of Skater 1:

b = 0 (the y-axis is intercepted at 0)

✔️Skater 1 linear function in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

Substitute m = 6 and b = 0 into y = mx + b

Linear function: y = 6x + 0

y = 6x

✔️Slope (m) of skater 2:

Rise = 30

Run = 15

Slope (m) = 30/15 = 2

✔️ y-intercept (b) of Skater 2:

b = 0 (the y-axis is intercepted at 0)

✔️Skater 2 linear function in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

Substitute m = 2 and b = 0 into y = mx + b

Linear function: y = 2x + 0

y = 2x
