Parallel lines has equal slopes. Hence slope of line = -1/2
equation of line is (y - y1) = -1/2(x - x1)
y - (-6) = -1/2(x - 4)
y + 6 = -1/2x + 2
y = -1/2x + 2 - 6
y = -1/2x - 4
The final equation is:

Further explanation:
The general form of equation of a line in slope-intercept form is:

Here m is the slope
Given
m=1
(x,y) = (-7,-4)

To find the value of b, we have to put the point in the equation

The final equation is:

Answer:
x= 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/(2x) + 1/8 = -1/(3x) - 1/4
-1/(2x)+1(3x)= - 1/4 -1/8
-3/(6x)+2(6x) = -2/8 -1/8
- 1/(6x) = - 3/8
-1*8 = -3*6x
8=18x
x= 8/18= 4/9
Check:
-1/(2*4/9) + 1/8 = -1/(3*4/9) - 1/4
- 1(8/9) + 1/8 = - 1/(4/3)-1/4
-9/8+1/8 = - 3/4-1/4
-1 = -1
