Question 673203: Graph each line from the given information; then find the equation in general form for each line.
Through (1,2) and parallel to 4x+y-1=0 (draw both lines, then find the equation.) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Through (1,2) and parallel to 4x+y-1=0
---------------------
Find the slope of the given line:
y = -4x+1
slope = -4
----
All lines parallel to it must have slope = -4
----
Form: y = mx + b
Solve for "b":
2 = -4*1 + b
b = 6
------
Equation of your line: y = -4x + 6
