The line which is parallel to 2x-2y=-4 that passes through the

point (3,9) is x-y = -6.

Given that, 2x-2y = -4 passes through the point (3,9) then we have to find the equation of a line which is parallel to the given equation of line.

Let's proceed to find the equation of the line.

The slope intercept form of a straight line is one of the most common forms used to represent the equation of a line. The slope intercept formula can be used to find the equation of a line when given the slope of the straight line and the y-intercept( the y-coordinate of the point where the line intersects the y-axis).

Using the slope-intercept formula, the equation of the line is:

y = mx + b

where,

m = the slope of the line

b = y-intercept of the line

(x, y) represent every point on the line

x and y have to be kept as the variables while applying the above formula.

2x-2y = -4

-2y = -4-2x

y = -4/-2 - 2x/-2

y = 2+x

y = x+2

On comparing with y = mx+b

m = 1 and b = 2

As the lines are parallel then the slope of other line will also be same i.e., m = 1

The point from which it is passes is (3,9)

⇒ x₁ = 3 and y₁ = 9

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

⇒ y-9 = 1(x-3)

⇒ y-9 = x-3

⇒ y = x-3+9

⇒ y = x+6

⇒ x-y = -6

Therefore, the line which is parallel to 2x-2y=-4 that passes through the

point (3,9) is x-y = -6.

Hence, x-y = -6 is the required answer.
