Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y = 0.5x + 6 and
passes through the point (6, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the equation is parallel, this means that the slope remains the same which is 0.5.

The remaining thing to do is to find b or y-intercept. To do that, the point (6,-2) and the slope of 0.5 will be used.

When solving for b, it will equal to -5.

Therefore the new equation that is parallel is

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

idk
