Question

12.

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point.

y = 3/4x – 9; (–8, –18)
A. y = 4/3x – 12
B. y = -4/3x + 12
C. y = 3/4x – 12
D. y = 3/4x + 11/2

Answer 1

C. y = 3/4x – 12

Explanation:

y = 3/4x + b

-18 = 3/4(-8) + b

-18 = -6 + b

-12 = b
