Question 499166
3	x	+	4	y  	=	10			
Find the slope of this line 									
make y the subject									
4	y  	=	-3	x	+	10			
Divide by 	4								
	y  	=	-0.75	x	+	2.5			
Compare this equation with y=mx+b									
slope m =	- 3/4								
The slope of a line parallel to the above line will be the same									
The slope of the required line will be 			-0.75						
m=	- 3/4	,point	(	2	,	-3	)		
Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in									
y=mx+b									
-3	=	-1.50	+	b					
b=	-1.5								
m=	-0.75								
Plug value of  the slope  and b	in y = mx +b				
The required equation isy  	=	- 3/4	x		-1.5		
		y  	=	-  3/ 4	x		-3/ 2
