Linda cut a piece of wood for project the first cut is Shawn and can be represented by the equation Y=1/4x-5 Lisa can’t cut needs to be parallel to the first it will pass through the point (0,4) identify the equation that represents Lynda second cut

Respuesta :

Lisa's cut will be represented by the equation y = 1/4x + 4


Answer:

Equation of Linda's cut ,which is a equation of line is:

[tex]y=\frac{x}{4}-5[/tex]

                         ----------------------(1)

Equation of any line parallel to line ,

y= m x + c is, y= m x + p

Where c, is Y intercept of first line, and p is y intercept of second line,which is parallel to first line.

Only Y intercept changes, when two lines are parallel.

Equation of line parallel to line 1, is

[tex]y=\frac{x}{4}+k[/tex]

Since ,it is given that Second line passes through point (0,4).

4=0 + k

k=4

So, equation of line parallel to line  [tex]y=\frac{x}{4}-5[/tex] which passes through (0,4) is  [tex]y=\frac{x}{4}+4[/tex].
