Answer 4

you should know that if two lines are parallel, that means they have the same slope.

so lets find the slope of 4x-3y=-12
do you know how?

Answer 5

Yes, well tell me if i'm right.
3y=-12+4x

Answer 6

Then divide 3

Answer 7

y=-4+

Answer 8

y=-4+4/3x?

Answer 9

it shouldve been 3y=12+4x not negative 12
but it wouldnt really affect you answer in this question

Answer 10

Oh ok. so y=4+4/3x

Answer 11

so your equation would be y=4+ 4/3x

so whats the slope?

Answer 12

4/3? or 4?

Answer 13

4/3 right?

Answer 14

yea, 4/3 is right

remember slope-intercept form which is what you put it in
