which of the following represents an equation of a line parallel to one whise equation is 2y+8x=18?1) y = -4x-32) y =4x+73) y =8x-24) y= 8x+9

Sagot :

The given equation is

[tex]2y+8x=18[/tex]

The slope of this line can be found by using the following formula

[tex]m=-\frac{A}{B}[/tex]

Where A = 8 and B = 2.

[tex]m=-\frac{8}{2}=-4[/tex]

So, the parallel line must have a slope of -4. Having said that, the correct answer is option 1 because it has a slope of -4.
