Ok

fisrt we determine sign
negative divided by positive=negative
answer is negative
disregard any signs for now
first convert to from mixed to improper
3 and 1/5=3+1/5=15/5+1/5=16/5

(16/5)/(2/15)
remember the fancy 'invert and multiply'
I won't tell you why because it would take too long, but if you want to know why we invert and multiply, just ask in comments

so, invert an multilply
(a/b)/(c/d)=(ad)/(bc)
(16/5)/(2/15)=(16*15)/(5*2)=(240)/(10)=24

the answer is negative so

What is the equation of the line parallel to 3x + 2y = -4 that goes through the point (4, -1)?
Basile [38]

Answer:

y=-3/2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = -4

2y=-4-3x /:2

y=-4/2-3x/2

y=-3/2x-2

Slope=-3/2(=m) , because this line is parallel slope is the same, then

y-y1=m(x-x1) ,where

A(4,-1).... x1 =4, y1 =-1

y-(-1)=-3/2(x-4)

y+1=-3/2x+3/2*4

y+1=-3/2x+6

y=-3/2x+6-1

y=-3/2x+5
