Question

Which equasion represents a line that is parallel to the line y=-4x+5

Answer 1

In order to be parallel to your line, a line has to have the same slope as your line. So it has to have slope −4
−
4
.

Thus any line parallel to the line =−4+5
y
=
−
4
x
+
5
has an equation of the form =−4+
y
=
−
4
x
+
b
, where
b
is any number.
