Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = -x + 2 and goes through the point
(-6,8)

y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same slope but different

y-intercepts.

So the slope of the parallel line is -x

We can input the x and y points given to solve for the new y-intercept

The new line is y = -x + 2. Since these two lines are the same, they are coinciding lines.

y = - x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = m x + c

Here,

m ⇒ slope

c ⇒ y - intercept

Let us solve now.

( -6 , 8 ) ⇒ ( x , y )

y = m x + c

8 = -1 × -6 + c

8 = 6 + c

8 - 6 = c

2 = c

y = m x + c

y = - x + 2
