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

Question

cyber405 · Answer

If they are parallel then the slope of two line is the same...

The equation of lines can be written like this...

y=mx+b  where m is slope of line and b is intercept of line.
For example you can write 4x-3y=-12 like this...y=4/3x+4

The slope of this line is as same as the other...then you can write this 
 
y=4/3x+b     then you can put the (-3,4) in the equation

after solving it you have intercept which is b.
