Answer:

y = 2/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

y = mx + b       Slope Intercept Form

Step 2:

2x - 3y = 6           Equation

Step 3:

- 3y = - 2x + 6     Subtract 2x on both sides

Step 4:

y = 2/3x - 2           Divide - 3 on both sides

Answer:

y = 2/3x - 2

Hope This Helps :)

the equation of the line / is -3y+4x=9. write the equation of a line that is parallel to the line / and passes through the point
nekit [7.7K]

Hey!

So before trying to figure out the equation of the line, lets change -3y+4x = 9 into slope-intercept form:

-3y + 4x = 9

-3y = -4x + 9

y = (4/3)x - 3

Now that you have the equation in slope-intercept form we can find the equation of the line parallel to this. One thing that we are given from this equation is the slope of the line, the slope for two parallel lines are the same. So we know that the slope of the line is 4/3. We are also given another point on the line and we can plug this point in for y and x to find the y-intercept or b:

6 = (4/3)(-12) + b

6 = -16 + b

22 = b

Now that we know b, we have both the y-intercept and the slope so our equation would be:

y = (4/3)x + 22

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

  • Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The first three options are correct.

The last option is incorrect as same side interior angles are supplementary, so they should sum to 180° but in the given option their sum is 100°.
