What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (6, -2) and is parallel
       
      
                
     
    
    
    
    
    1 answer:
            
              
              
                
                
Answer:
y= -5/3x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
parallel lines have the same slope
5x + 3y = 6
3y = -5x + 6
y = -5/3x + 2
the new line will have the slope (-5/3x)
y = (-5/3x) + b
plug in the (x, y) value to find b
-2 = -5/3(6) + b
-2 = -10 + b
b = 8
your equation is: y= -5/3x + 8

Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
given that your slop is -4/3, plug the (x,y) point in to the equation of y = -4x/3 +b
-1 = -4 + b , b = 3
y = -4x/3 + 3
