Question 1 of 10
If f(x) = 4x - 12, what is f(2)?
A. -20
B. 8
C. 4
D. -4

y = -5x Y8  

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Your function is

y = 9 − 5x = -5x+ 9

slope = -5

The parallel line

The line must have slope = -5 and include (0, 8), so

8 = -5×(0) + b

8 = 0 + b

b = 8

The equation for the parallel line is

y = -5x + 8

In the diagram below, the red line is the graph of y = 9 -5x.

The parallel blue line is the graph of y = -5x + 8.
