Question

Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (8, 4) and is parallel to the line y = 4x + 2.

Answer 1

It—‘ 4*_28 hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

y = 4x - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines are parallel, their slope stays the same. thus we have y = 4x (so far)

Then use the point (8, 4) to plug in the coordinates to y = 4x + b

y = 4x + b (because y-intercept changes)

4 = 4(8) + b

4 = 32 + b

b = 4 - 32

b = -28

the y-intercept is -28 and the equation of the line that passes through the point (8, 4) and is parallel to the line y = 4x + 2 is y = 4x - 28
