Answer:
y = x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Coordinates = p(4,0)
Equation of the line -x+2y=12
Solution:
A line parallel to the given line will have the same slope as it is;
-x+2y=12
2y = x + 12
y = x +
Since this conforms to y = mx + c where;
x and y are the coordinates
m is the slope
c is the intercept
Our slope is
The equation of the line is
y = mx + c
let us find c;
c = y - mx
c = 0 - ( x 4)
c = -2
Now the equation of the line parallel to the line given is;
y = x - 2
