If you wanted to make the graph of y = 6x- 14 steeper, as well as shift the y-
intercept of this line down, which equation could you use?
o a. y=8x-16
o b. y = 4x - 12
o c. y= 8x - 12
o d. y= 4x-16

what are the statements

step-by-step explanation:

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )

x = 3 ± √(5+y)
