Question 1061985:  1-which of the following equations passes through the points (2,4) and (-3,-6)? 
2-Given 3y-4x=5 and 4y+6=3x 
are these lines parallel,perpendicular or neither? 
3-What is the equation of a line that choose: 
passes through the point(4,-5)and is parallel to 3x+2y=12?

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! -which of the following equations passes through the points (2,4) and (-3,-6)? 
slope = (4--6)/(2--3) = 10/5 = 2 
Form:: y = mx + b 
Solve for "b":: 
4 = 2*2 + b 
b =0 
Equation:: y = 2x 
-------------------------- 
2-Given 3y-4x=5 and 4y+6=3x 
are these lines parallel,perpendicular or neither? 
slope of 1st equation ?  y = (4/3)x + (5/3) :: slope = 4/3 
slope of 2nd equation ? y = (3/4)x - (6/4) :: slope = 3/4 
Ans: neither 
------------------------------------------- 
3-What is the equation of a line that choose: 
passes through the point(4,-5)and is parallel to 3x+2y=12? 
slope = -3/2 
Form :: y = mx + b 
-5 = (-3/2)*4 + b 
-5 = -6 + b 
b = 1 
Equation::y = (-3/2)x + 1 
------------------------------
