1.) x = -3...this is a vertical line with an undefined slope. A parallel line to a vertical line is also a vertical line. A vertical line is represented by x = a number....that number being the x coordinate of ur point(4,2).
so ur parallel line is : x = 4 <==
=================
2.) y = -3/2x + 6....slope here is -3/2. A parallel line will have the same slope.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/2
(2,-1)...x = 2 and y = -1
now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int
-1 = -3/2(2) + b
-1 = -3 + b
-1 + 3 = b
2 = b
so ur parallel line is : y = -3/2x + 2 <==
===================
y = -x - 2....the slope here is -1. A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1
(2,-2)...x = 2 and y = -2
now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int
-2 = -1(2) + b
-2 = -2 + b
-2 + 2 = b
0 = b
so ur parallel equation is : y = -x + 0 which can be written as : y = -x <=

choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (1, −4) with a slope of 1/2. a.) y − 4 = 1/2(x − 1)

Ganezh [65]

Point (1, -4)
Slope=1/2
y=mx+c
y=1/2x +c
-4=1/2(1)+c
-4=1/2+c
c=-4-1/2
c=-4 1/2
y= $\frac{1}{2} x- \frac{9}{2}$

Name the parallel segment

MN would be the answer to your question because they are parallel
