Answer:

$\mathsf{slope=-\dfrac25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mathsf{let \ (x_1,y_1)=(-8,2)}$

$\mathsf{let \ (x_2,y_2)=(7,-4)}$

$\mathsf{slope=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}$

$\implies \mathsf{slope=\dfrac{-4-2}{7--8}=-\dfrac25}$

Which equation describes a line parallel<br> to y= 4x+ 5 through point (-2, 1)?

Tema [17]

Hi there!

For a line to be PARALLEL, it must contain the same slope.

The given line has a slope of 4, so we can use the point-slope formula to solve:

$\large\boxed{y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)}$

y1 = y-coordinate of given point

x1 = x-coordinate of given point

m = slope

Plug in the values:

$y - 1 = 4(x - (-2))\\\\y - 1 = 4(x + 2)$

Simplify:

$y - 1 = 4x + 8\\\\\boxed{y = 4x + 9}$
