How do i write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that is parallel
to the given line and that passes through the given point y=7;(2,4)
y=7 is a horizontal line through where y is 7 on the y-axis.
And in general,
y=[any number] is a horizontal line through where y is [that number] on the
y-axis.
We want a line parallel to the line whose equation is y=7 through (2,4) so
we draw it (in green):
Now we use the fact that
y=[any number] is a horizontal line through where y is [that number] on the
y-axis.
This is a horizontal line through where y is 4 on the y-axis, so its
equation is y=4.
