Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y=−14x−3 through the point (4,4). A. y=x+5 B. y=−14x+5 C. y=5x+1 D. y=5x−14

None of the answers seem to be correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is of the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Here, m = -14

Two parallel lines have the same slope. So, the slope of the new line will be -14.

To calculate the y-intercept substitute x=4 and y=4 in the equation.

4 = (-14)(4) + b

Solving for b, we get b = 60.

So, the new equation will be y = -14x + 60
