Algebra.Com's Answer #147094 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Write the equation for a line that is parallel to y=3/2x-9/5 and goes thru the point (4,11) \n" ); document.write( "--------------- \n" ); document.write( "Since y=(3/2)x-9/5 (I assume it's not 3/(2x) is in slope-intercept form, the slope, m, is 3/2. \n" ); document.write( "All lines parallel have the same slope. \n" ); document.write( "Use \n" ); document.write( "y-y1 = m*(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is the point. \n" ); document.write( "y-11 = (3/2)*(x-4) \n" ); document.write( "y-11 = 3x/2 - 3 \n" ); document.write( "y = 3x/2 + 8 \n" ); document.write( "--------------- \n" ); document.write( "or 3x - 2y = -16 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
