You can put this solution on YOUR website! find an equation of the line meeting the specified conditions, write answer is slope intercept form line is containing pt (2,6) and parallel to y=-4x-1
---------------
The slope, m, of y = -4x-1 is -4.
All lines parallel to it will have the same slope.
--------------
Use y = mx + b and the point to find b.
6 = -4*2 + b
b = 14
------
y = -4x + 14 is the answer.
