Question

Write the equation of the line parallel to the given line and passing through the given point. y= 1/2 x+2 through (0,4)

Answer 1

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the new line is 1/2.

The line passes through (0,4), and this gives the y-intercept, which would equal 4.

The equation now would be: y = 1/2x + 4
