put this solution on YOUR website! find an equation of the line that has a y-intercept of 2 that is parallel to the graph of the line 4x+2y=8
4x+2y=8
can be divided through by 2
2x+y=4
Parallel lines only differ by the constant terms. So we drop off the 4
2x+y=?
Substitute in the y-intercept which is the point (0,2)
2(0)+2=?
0+2=2
So the answer is
2x+y=2
