Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 4x − 3y = −12 and passes through the point (−3, 4).

A. y= 4/3x + 8
B. y= 4/3x + 3
C. y= -4/3x+ 8
D. y= -4/3x +3

Answer 1

Can someone pleaseeeeeeee help me ):

Answer 2

Really? Noone?

Answer 3

The slope of the line 4x - 3y = -12 is 4/3. Parallel lines have the same slope. Because you know the slope and a point on the line, you can plug this information into point-slope form.

Point-slope form: y - k = m (x - h)
m= slope
line passes through point (h,k)

In this case, your slope is 4/3, and the line passes through point (-3,4). Plug it in

y - 4 = 4/3 (x - (-3))
y - 4 = 4/3 (x + 3)
y - 4 = 4/3x + 4
A. y = 4/3x + 8
