Question

please... find the line that satisfies the condition
* y-intercept 6 , parallel to the line 2x+3y+4=0

Answer 1

First solve for slope fromthe line equation that the problem has provided you
2x+3y+4=0

Answer 2

The slope will be the coefficient of x when you have "rearranged" the formula with y isolated on the left and everything else to the right of the equal sign.

Answer 3

Use rules of algebra for the "rearranging"

Answer 4

Answer 7

1. Determine slope:
2x+3y +4=0 Subtract 2x and 4 from both sides of equation
3y +2x - 2x +4 - 4 = -2x -4 "clean up"
3y=-2x-4 Divide both sides by 3
3y/3= -(2/3)x -4/3 "clean up"
y =-(2/3)x -4/3 Coefficient of is -2/3 Slope = -2/3
2. Determine the line (rest of the equation)
Equation will appear as: y = -(2/3) x + 6 Intercept is given in problem as 6
Parallel lines will have equal slope.
