Question

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passed through point (-4,6)? X=-6 x=-4 y=-6 y=-4

Answer 1

Answer:

3rd Option is correct that is y = - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Points on the given line: ( -8 , 4 ) and ( 8 , 4 )

To find: Equation of line passing through ( -4 , -6 ) and parallel to given line.

We find the equation of the line using Slope-Point form.

Both line are parallel means Slope of both lines are equal.

Slope of the Required line, m = Slope of given line

                                                  = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

                                                  = $\frac{4-4}{-8-8}$

                                                  = $0$

So, the equation of line

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y-(-6)=0(x-(-4))$

$y+6=0$

y = - 6

Therefore, 3rd Option is correct that is y = - 6.

Answer 2

Answer:

Did you try doing the formula y2-y1/x2-x1?

You just plug in the points that they already gave you which would be -8 and 4 and 8 and 4.

-8 would be x1

4 would be y1

8 would be x2

4 would be y2
