Question 178580: I have to find the equation for the line describes in the following in slope intercepr form
1. passing through (-4,3) (1,-7) I did this one
2. passing through (-3,-2) and paralell the thegraph of -4x+y=2 I am having problem finding the rise over run in this problem I do not know the other x and y

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You have to put the equation -4x+%2B+y+=+2 in the
slope intercept form
-4x+%2B+y+=+2
y+=+4x+%2B+2
The slope is 4
You know the equation looks like
y+=+4x+%2B+b and you have the point (-3,-2). Now find b
-2+=+4%2A%28-3%29+%2B+b
b+=+-2+%2B+12
b+=+10
y+=+4x+%2B+10 answer
