slop-interception form of the required line is y=kx+b, where k - slop, b - intercept;
1) to find value of k:
if the required line is parallel to the given line, then slop of the given line = slop of the required line, it means k=4 and the required line is y=4x+b;
2) to find the value of 'b':
if to substitute the given coordinates into the equation of the given line, then:
Since there is an absolute value, the answer must be positive. Multiply 2 by 8 since two negatives equal a positive. So, |15-47 + 9 - 8 -17|. Then add and subtract to get the answer. -32 + 9 - 8 -17 = -48. |-48| = 48
