The line y=-5x+b passes through the point (4,-10). Algebraically determine the value of b

b=10

Step-by-step explanation:

you plug in the x and y factors to get the equation:

-10=-5(4)+b

-10=-20+b

+20  +20

10=b

215.92 dollars is the answer

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. : )
