What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (4,-4) and is parallel to the line 3x-4y=16?
===============
Step 1, find m, the slope of the line.
Parallel lines have the same slope.
-----
Step 2, use y-y1 = m*(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is the point.

There is something wrong with your input system:

It systematically doubles your numerical input data.


Be careful and attentive with it.

If you can not manage it and do not understand how and why it works and produces wrong input, you better print your problem manually.
