Question

find an equation of the line passing through the point (-2,4) and parallel to the line given by the equation 2x-3y=11, write your answer in slope intercept form.

Answer 1

parallel lines have the same slope, so if we re-write your given equation in form:
y=2/3 x -11/3
your slope will be 2/3
right?

Answer 2

now, to pass through he point (-2,4) means:
y-4=2/3 (x-(-2))

Answer 3

Their initial equation was 2x-3y=11

Answer 4

or y=2x/3 +16/3
see it?

Answer 5

I re-wrote give eq as follow (slope-intercept form):
-3y=11-2x
y=2/3 x -11/3

Answer 6

Oh yeah sorry me just being stupid thanks

Answer 7

no worries... :)

Answer 8

thank you :)
