What is the equation of the line that passes through (4,2) and is parallel to 3x-2y=-6

1 answer:

5 0

3x-2y=-6
2y = 3x + 6
y = 3/2x + 3 so slope = 3/2
parallel lines have same slope, also has slope = 3/2

passes through (4,2)
y = mx + b
2 = 3/2(4) + b
2 = 6 + b
b = -4

equation
y = 3/2x - 4

standard form
3x - 2y = 8

A line passes through the points (-1,-1) and (5,8) which points lie on the same line?

djverab [1.8K]

Answer: all points $(x,y)$ that satisfy $y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is

$\frac{-1-8}{-1-5}=\frac{-9}{-6}=\frac{3}{2}$

So, substituting into point-slope form, the equation is

$y+1=\frac{3}{2}(x+1)\\\\y+1=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{3}{2}\\\\y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, all points $(x,y)$ that satisfy $y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}$ will lie on the same line.
