Question

What is the equation of a line that contains the point (4, 0) and is parallel to x + y = 2?

Answer 1

Answer:

x + y = 4 or y = -x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

0 = -1[4] + b

4 = b

y = -x + 4

If you want it in Standard Form:

y = -x + 4

+x +x

_________

x + y = 4 >> Line in Standard Form

* Since the rate of change [slope] is -1 and that parallel lines have SIMILAR SLOPES, -1 remains the same.
