Question

The line through (1, -4) and parallel to 2x +3y = 4.

Answer 1

Should we find the slope of the line first by expressing the equation of the form of \(y=mx+c\)?

Answer 2

I think so but if I plug the points (1,-4) in then I get 2-12=4

Answer 3

Oh if they're parallel we only have to change the constant (the y-intercept) !!!! :D

Answer 4

So we have \(2x+3y=c\)

Answer 5

So \(c\) is \(2-12=-10\) :D

Answer 6

ohh lol that makes sense !(:
