Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line. Write it in slope intercept form:
(0,6) 7y-35x=4
a) y=5x+6
b) y=5x-6
c) y=-1/6x+4
d) -1/5x+6
e) y=-1/5x+4
Explain how you got the answer
-------------------------
7y-35x=4
7y = 35x + 4
y = 5x + 4/7 --> Slope = 5
Only a and b have a slope of 5, so c and d are out.
Sub 0 for x into a and b, and only satisfies the equation, so b is eliminated.
It's a, y = 5x+6
