Question

Write the equation of the line that contains (8,0) and is parallel to the line -3x+4y=4

Answer 1

Answer:

y = (3/4)x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

if line is parallel to -3x + 4y = 4, that means that they both have the same slope

Slope of that second line is 3/4.

now time to find the y-intercept

0 = 3/4*8 + b

therefore, b = -(3/4)*8 = -3*2 = -6

Therefore, equation of line is y = (3/4)x - 6
