Question

Write the equation for the line passing through the point (2, 4) that is parallel to 4x + y = 7.

give final answer in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

Y=-4x+12

Explanation:

Using point slope form:

Y-4= -4(x-2)

Y= -4x+8+4

Y=-4x+12

Answer 2

y = -4x + 12

Explanation:

(4) = -4(2) + b

4 = -8 + b

4 + 8 = b

12 = b
