Hard to answer when the question is not CLEAR ... perhaps you mean
"the line y = -x + 1"
it's not a line unless we have the EQUATION of a line, and you've supplied no EQUATION.
The line I supplied has a bunch of parallel lines, for example
y = -x + 3
y = -x + 10
y = -x
y = -x - 4
and in general
y = -x + c
where c is any constant number you toastie
now, can we find one of these lines that passed through (4, 1)?
(NOTE: to specify a point, stick the coordinates in parens and stick a comma between them ... you toastie)
y = -x + c becomes something like 1 = -4 + c and that would make c = 5 be a good choice for the line we want. Try it! y = -x + 5 sure enough passes through (4,1). What a honey!

∙ 6y agoThe browser used by this site for posting questions is virtually useless for mathematical questions because it strips out most symbols. Your equation appears as "y -x plus 1". I am assuming that it is meant to be y = -x plus 1. In that case the required equation is y = -x + 5.

Choose the equation of a line that is parallel to y 3x - 2 and passes through the point -1-6?
y = 3x - 3
What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y 3x -4 and passes through the point (4 -2)?
If you mean: y = 3x-4 then the parallel equation is y = 3x-14 because they both will have the same slope but different y intercepts
Write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the the given line6 and 7 3x plus y equals 8?
Given point: (6, 7) Equation: 3x+y = 8 Parallel equation: 3x+y = 25
Find the equation of the line through the point -3-2 and Parallel to the line 3x plus y equals 4?
3x + y = 4 y = -3x + 4 (the slope is -3) The line that passes through the point (-3, -2) has a slope of -3, since it is parallel to the line with equation 3x + y = 4 (parallel lines have equal slopes). Using the slpoe -3 and the point (-3, -2) we find the equation of the required line such as (y - -2) = -3(x - -3) y + 2 = -3x - 9 y = -3x -11 3x + y = -11
