Question

What is the equation of a line that is parallel to  −3x+4y=4 and passes through the point (4,0)?

Answer 1

So you have to first put put the equation in slope-intercept form.
-3x+4y=4
+3x      +3x
_______________
4y=4+3x
then you divide 4 by 4 and then divide 3x by 4 and you should get y=1+3/4x
then you plug in x and only x so that you can find y and then do the same once you find y 
y=1+ (4)3/4
y= 1+3
y=4
then plug in y and solve for x
4= 1+ 3/4x
subtract 1 from both sides
3=3/4x
divide both sides by 3/4
and x=4 
so then you find b and put it all in a equation.
