Question

write the equation of the line through -1 and -2 that is parallel to 3x+ 4y=12 please tell me the right answer

Answer 1

First, find the slope of the line (1): y = -3x/4 + 3.
Write the equation of the line (2), parallel to line (1), and passes through point (-1, -2): y = -3x/4 + b . Replace x by (-1) and y by (-2).
(-2) = -3(-1)/4 + b
b = -8/3.
Finally the answer is : y = .....
