Question 1128211: Which is an equation of the line that is parallel to 7x+2y=6 and passes through the point(2,3)? Found 2 solutions by ikleyn, MathLover1:Answer by ikleyn(52794) (Show Source):
Any line parallel to the given line has the form
7x + 2y = c,
where "c" is some constant. For your case, you determine the value of the constant term "c" from the condition,
that the point (2,3) belongs to this line.
For it, substitute the coordinates of the given point x= 2 and y= 3 into the equation (1). You will get
c = 7*2 + 2*3 = 14 + 6 = 20.
So, your equation is
7x + 2y = 20.

Which is an equation of the line that is parallel to and passes through the point(,)?
parallel lines have same slope
so, first find a slope of => slope is
and, parallel line is
......use point (,)
