Question 604510
y  	=	- 3/4	x		-5	
Divide by	1						
y  	=	- 3/4	x		-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	- 3/4				
m=	- 3/4	,point	(	4	,	2	)
Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in							
y=mx+b							
2	=	-3      	+	b			
b=	5						
m=	- 3/4						
Plug value of  the slope  and b	in y = mx +b		
The required equation is	y  	=	- 3/4	x	+	5
