X=4
It means that all values of x would make it true. Also take a look at the equation when we simplify:
4x + 7 = 1 + 4x + 6
Which simplified turns into
4x + 7 = 4x + 7
So no matter what value you put for x, it will be the same on both sides, making all values true for x.
Y=9-x is slope-intercept form of that line, which means it has a slope of -1. Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of this new line will also be -1.
To find the line that goes through (5,1), we can use a blank equation y=mx+b. We know that m=-1, so we can use the given point to find b:
y=mx+b
Y=-x+b
1=-5+b
6=b
So the line would be y=-x+6.
Answer:
slope = -1/3
