Problem 110 of 7
Find a line that intersects parabola y=(x+2)^2 at specified point(s) (-2,0) and (0,4).
Using a hint is okay. It just tells the trainer to give you a little more review.

use shared points and linear equation.
Hidden until you reveal it.
Specified points must lie on the parabola and determine a line.
Enter your answer
Your answer is equivalent to the expected form.

Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Use the specified points to compute the slope.
2. Substitute one point into y=mx+b to find b.
3. Write the line equation and verify it contains the given points.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
Lines that pass through only one of the points unless the prompt specifies tangent with one point.
