(0,4), y=-x-5?

Question

Write an equation of the line containing the speified point and parrallel to the indicated line.

I have slope =-1
y-4=-1(x-0)
y-4=-x
y=-x+4

Is this right? Or am I doing something wrong?

Answer 1

Yes. The slope is -1, because it's the same as the given line. You pluged in things fine. You could have also just used the formula y = mx + b, since you were given the y-intercept was 4.

Answer 2

right!
