Question

What is the equation of a line parallel to y= -1/2x+6 that passes through (-4,1)?

Answer 1

y=-.5x+3

Explanation:

it is parallel so it has the same slope -.5

point slope is probably the easiest way to solve this

y-1=-.5(x+4)

solve into the right form unless point slope is ok

y-1=-.5x+2

y=-.5x+3
