Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation.
(-8, -4); y=-4x+3
Write an equation for the line in slope-intercept form.
so it will differ only in the constant
let the equation be y = -4x + b
but (-8,-4) lies on it, so
-8 = -4(-8) + b
solve for b and write the equation.
