Question 51236: can you help me with this problem please
write an equation in slope-intercept form that satisfies each condition.
passes through (4,5) and is parallel to x+2y=4
i did it like this 4+2(5)=4 im not sure if thats right... please help

write an equation in slope-intercept form that satisfies each condition.
passes through (4,5) and is parallel to x+2y=4
PARALLEL LINE WILL HAVE EQN. OF THE FORM
X+2Y=K
IT PASSES THROUGH (4,5)..HENCE
4+2*5=K
K=14
HENCE EQN IS
X+2Y=14
i did it like this 4+2(5)=4???14>>>OK???? im not sure if thats right... please help
