Question

Which equation represents a line that is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x + 3y = 12

Answer 1

You first need to solve for y to get the equation in the y=Mx+b;
y=-(2/3)x+4
So the slope is -(2/3) and the y-intercept is 4. Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts. That means that a line with a slope of -(2/3) will work.
