write the equation of the line that contains the indicated point and meets the indicated condition. Write the answer in y=mx+b form.
A.(-4,0) and parallel to y=-2x+1
m = -2
Use y = mx + b and the point to find b.
--------------------
B.(-2,-4) and perpendicular to y=2/3x - 5
m = -3/2, the negative inverse of 2/3
