You can put this solution on YOUR website! Please help me find the slope-intercept form of the line passing through the point (9,-7) and parallel to the line 7x-9y=7
-----------
The given line has slope = 7/9
----
Any parallel line must have slope = 7/9
-----
Form: y = mx + b
-7 = (7/9)(9) + b
b = -14
==========
Equation:
y = (7/9)x -14
