<PRE><B>Question 952482</B>
write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line satisfying the given conditions.
 The line passes through (4,-4) and is parallel to the line whose equation is y=2x+1
-----
The given line has slope = 2.
---
Equation we want has m = 2 ; x = 4 ; y = -4
------
Equation Form::
y = mx + b
-------
Solve for &quot;b&quot;::
-4 = 2*4 + b
b = -12
-----
Equation:
y = 2x - 12
