What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passed through point (-4,6)? X=-6 x=-4 y=-6 y=-4

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passed through point 46 X6 x4 y6 y4 class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

3rd Option is correct that is y = - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Points on the given line: ( -8 , 4 ) and ( 8 , 4 )

To find: Equation of line passing through ( -4 , -6 ) and parallel to given line.

We find the equation of the line using Slope-Point form.

Both line are parallel means Slope of both lines are equal.

Slope of the Required line, m = Slope of given line

                                                  = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

                                                  = [tex]\frac{4-4}{-8-8}[/tex]

                                                  = [tex]0[/tex]

So, the equation of line

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-(-6)=0(x-(-4))[/tex]

[tex]y+6=0[/tex]

y = - 6

Therefore, 3rd Option is correct that is y = - 6.
