Question

The equation of a line parallel to 2x−y+4=0 that passes through the point ( -1, 5) is ___? Write it in GENERAL FORM
Will mark the brainliest.

Answer 1

Answer:

y=-2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x−y+4=0

y=-2x-4

Slope =-2=m (because line is parallel, slope is the same)

(-1,5)....x1=-1, y1 =5

y-y1 =m(x-x1)

y-5=-2(x-(-1))

y-5=-2(x+1)

y-5=-2x-2

y=-2x-2+5

y=-2x+3
