Answer:
4x + 3y = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
• Parallel lines have equal slopes
calculate the slope of the line using the slope formula
m =
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 1) ← 2 points on the line
m = =
= -
, then
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
to find c substitute (- 3, 2 ) into the partial equation
2 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 4 = - 2
y = - x - 2 ← equation in slope- intercept form
multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction
3y = - 4x - 6 ( add 4x to both sides )
4x + 3y = - 6 ← in standard form
