Answer:

y=-2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

y= -2x + 4 and passes through point A(2, 4)

if a line is parallel then the two lines have the same slope

since the line passes through A(2,4) then

y=-2x+b find b

4=-2(2)+b

b=4+4=8

b=8

y=-2x+8

<h3>Answer:   y = -2x+8</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts. The given line y = -2x+4 has a slope of -2. Any line parallel to this will also have a slope of -2.

So m = -2

The unknown line goes through the point (x,y) = (2,4). Which means x = 2 and y = 4 pair up together.

Plug m = -2, x = 2, y = 4 into y = mx+b and solve for b

y = mx+b

4 = -2(2)+b

4 = -4+b

4+4 = b ... adding 4 to both sides

8 = b

b = 8

Since m = -2 and b = 8, we go from y = mx+b to y = -2x+8

--------------

Side note: the y intercept of the original equation is 4 while the y intercept of the new equation is 8
