parallel lines have equal slope:
---
y = 4x + 2
first line has slope (m) = 4
---
second line contains the point (1,8) and its slope (m) is also 4:
---
use the point-slope form of the second line:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 8 = 4(x - 1)
y - 8 = 4x - 4
---
y = 4x + 4
---
result:
f(x) = 4x + 4
---
---
---
check the answer:
x1 y1 m = 1 8 4
plug x1 y1 m into: https://sooeet.com/math/linear-equation-solver.php
---
again we see:
slope (m) = 4
y-intercept = 4
---
same result:
f(x) = 4x + 4
