Answer:

The lines are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the lines

-2x-3y=9

4x+6y=24

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

-2x-3y=9

y=-\frac{2}{3}x-3

Thus, the slope = m₁ = -2/3

also

4x+6y=24

  • y=-\frac{2}{3}x+4

Thus, the slope = m₂ = -2/3

  • We know that parallel lines have equal slopes

As

m₁ = m₂

Thus, the lines are parallel.

Write an equation for the line parallel to the given line that contains <br> C(4,8);y=-3x+4
Brrunno [24]
Parallel line means they have the same slope 
y = mx + b 
where m = slope 
y = -3 + 4
here the slope is negative 3
y = -3x + b
plug in (4, 8)
8 = -3(4) + b 
b = 8 + 12
b = 20

The answer is y = -3x + 20

What is equation of the line that passes through the point (-3,8) and has an undefined slope
aniked [119]

The equation of line that passes through point (-3, 8) and has an undefined slope is x = -3

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that we have to find the equation of line that passes through point (-3, 8) and has an undefined slope

Since the line has an undefined slope. This informs us that it is a vertical line parallel to the y-axis and passing through all points in the plane with the same x-coordinate.

If the slope of the line is undefined, then, by definition the line is a vertical line.

For a vertical line, the value of  x  is the same for each and every value of  y

Given point is (x, y) = (-3 , 8)

Because the value of  x  in the point provided in the problem is -3, we get

Equation of line is : x = -3
