find the equation of the parallel

Question

Find the equation of the line through point (−4,1)(−4,1) and parallel to y=−12x−2y=−12x−2. Use a forward slash (i.e. "/") for fractions (e.g. 1/2 for 1212).

Answer 1

Parallel lines have the equal slopes.

y = -12x - 2, thie slope is -12

Use point-slope form to determine the equation.

(y - 1) = (-12)(x + 4)
