Question

What is the equation of a line that is parallel to 2x+3y=3 and passes through the point (3, −4) ? Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

(3,-4) is your x and y. Plug it in the equation so,

For x,

2x+3y=3
2x+3(-4)=3
2x-12=3
2x=12+3
2x=15
2x/2=15/2
x=7.5

For y,

2(3)+3y=3
6+3y=3
3y=-6+3
3y=-3
3y/3=-3/3
y= -1
