Write the equations for a line parallel to the line:

Answer:

y = -4/3x -46/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us to write an equation that is:

- parallel to the given line

- goes through the point (-7, -6)

Parallel lines will have the same slope, because if the slope was different, they would eventually intersect and not be parallel lines anymore.

We are going to use the point-slope form to find the other line.

Point-slope form uses a point that the graph will cross through and the slope of the graph to find the graph in y = mx + b form (also called slope-intercept form).

(I attached the point-slope form as an image below)

m = slope

x1 = x coordinate of the point

y1 = y coordinate of the point

We are going to substitute our slope into the form first:

y - y1 = (-4/3)(x - x1)

Next let's put in our point (-7, -6):

(Remember! -7 is our x coordinate & -6 is our y coordinate :-) )

y - (-6) = -4/3(x - (-7))

(cancel out the negatives to make them positive)

y + 6 = -4/3 (x +7)

Now solve for x using basic algebra:

y + 6 = -4/3 (x +7)

(distribue the -4/3)

y + 6 = -4/3x - 28/3

(subtract 6 from both sides)

y = -4/3x -46/3

That's your answer!

Hope it helps (●'◡'●)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 6 = -4/3(x + 7)

y + 6 = -4/3x - 28/3

y + 18/3 = -4/3x - 28/3

y = -4/3x - 46/3
