Question

What is the equation of a line that goes through point W(2,0) and is parallel to a line that goes through A (-1,2) and B(1,-6)(1 point)
Responses

y = 4x - 8
y = 4x - 8

y = 4x+2
y = 4x+2

y = -4x + 8
y = -4x + 8

y = -4x + 2

Answer 1

Still can't do basic math? Or even check your answer?
Clearly, (2,0) is not a solution of y = -4x+2

The slope of the line through (-1,2) and (1,-6) is -4
so the line through (2,0) with slope 4 is
y = -4(x-2) = -4x+8

Answer 2

The correct answer is:

y = -4x + 2

Answer 3

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response.

You are correct. The equation of the line that goes through point W(2,0) and is parallel to the line passing through A(-1,2) and B(1,-6) is:

y = -4x + 8.
