Q:

Lynda cuts a piece of wood for a project. The first cut is shown and can be represented by the equation y=1/4x-5.The secend cut needs to be parallel to the first.it will pass through the point (0,4).Identify the equation that represents Lymda's second cut.

Accepted Solution

A:
Since the second line is parallel to the first, it will have the same slope. The y-intercept of the new line is 4 (because of the coordinates given) so the equation of Lynda's second cut is y = 1/4x + 4 which is choice C
