Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that is parallel to y=−4x−3 and that passes through the point (−2,4).


y=14x+92

y=−4x−12

y=14x+114

y=−4x−4

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Correct option is Last one [tex]y=-4x-4[/tex]

Therefore, equation of the line in slope-intercept that passes through (-2,4) and is parallel to the line [tex]y=-4x-3[/tex] is [tex]y=-4x-4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]y=-4x-3[/tex]

To Find:

Equation of line passing through ( -2, 4) and is parallel to the line y=-4x-3

Solution:

[tex]y=-4x-3[/tex] ..........Given

Comparing with Slope-Intercept form,  

[tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

Where m =slope  

We get

[tex]Slope = m = -4[/tex]

We know that parallel lines have Equal slopes.

Therefore the slope of the required line passing through (-2 , 4) will also have the slope = m = -4.

Now the equation of line in slope point form given by

[tex](y-y_{1})=m(x-x_{1})[/tex]

Substituting the points and so we will get the required equation of the line,

[tex](y-4))=-4(x-(-2))=-4x-8\\\\y=-4x-8+4=-4x-4\\\\y=-4x-4......Equation\ of\ line[/tex]

Therefore, equation of the line in slope-intercept that passes through (-2,4) and is parallel to the line [tex]y=-4x-3[/tex] is [tex]y=-4x-4[/tex]
