The graph of which of the following will be parallel to the graph of 4x – 3y = –12?

y =4/3x - 3/2
6x - 4y = -8
y = 3/4x + 1
4x = 2y = -12

(I think it's either the 3rd or 4th one, but i'm leaning more towards the last one)

Put your equation in y = mx + b form, and m is your slope
4x - 3y = -12
-3y = -4x - 12
y = 4/3x + 4
slope is 4/3

parallel line will have the same slope...so which equation has the same slope (4/3) ?
