Question

Use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in​ point-slope form and general form. Passing through (−8,3) and parallel to the line whose equation is 9x - 4y - 7 = 0

Answer 1

PSF: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
Standard Form: ax + by = c

            Point Slope Form                                Standard Form 

1).        y - 3 = -4(x + 8)                                  2).       y = -4x - 29 
            y - 3 = -4x - 32                                          + 4x  + 4x
              + 3          +   3                                 ---------------------------------
       -----------------------------                                 4x + y = -29 
            y = =4x - 29
