Find an equation of each line, and write it in slope-intercept form.
Through (-7,2) and parallel to 3x +5y=6
First we need to put the equation into slope intercept form: , m=slope and b=y-intercept.




, the slope of this line is: m=-3/5
Parrallel lines have the same slopes, so our line will also have a slope, m=-3/5.
We can find the equation of a line using the point-slope formula: , m=slope and (x1,y1)= given point.
m=-3/5 and (x1,y1)=(-7,2)









Happy Calculating!!!
