First, we find the slope of the given line.
<span>3x − 4y = 7
-4y = -3x + 7
y = (3/4)x - 7/4
The slope of the given line is 3/4.
The slope of the parallel line is also 3/4.
Now we need the equation of the line that has slope 3/4 and passes through point (-4, -2),
We use the point-slope form of the equation of a line.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - (-2) = (3/4)(x - (-4))
y + 2 = (3/4)(x + 4) <---- check option E. Is the fraction 3/4 not there?
y + 2 = (3/4)x + 3
y = (3/4)x + 1
4y = 3x + 4
3x - 4y = -4 <------ this is choice B.

Compare diagonally to see if they the 2 numbers simplify.
Ex:
3 and 6 Simplify to 1 and 2 because they are both multiples of 3.
9 and 15 Simplify to 3 and 5 because they are both multiples of 3 as well.

2 2/3=8/3 and 1 1/3=4/3. 8/3×4/3=32/9. 32/9 as a mixed number is 3 5/9.
Yes ABD=CBD since they both are just half of the triangle
