What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,2) and is
parallel to the line represented by
y - 4 = 1/2(x + 3)?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are parallel, that means the slope is the same. We can then use the slope point form: y - y1 = 1/2(x - x1) which is the form in the question as well.

Given that there is a point at (4,2), the equation of the line is then

y - 2 = 1/2(x-4)

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula

[tex]y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )[/tex]

to find the line parallel to

[tex]y-4=\frac{1}{2} (x+3)[/tex].
