Question

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-1,4) and is parallel

to the line x + y = 4?

Answer 1

y = -x + 3

Explanation:

Solve x + y = 4 for y

You'll get y= -x+4

The parallel line has the same slope so use this in the point given to find the y intercept. y = -x +3
