Find the equation of a line parallel to 3x−4y=6 that contains the point (2,−4).
Added by Ryan S.
Step 1
The equation of the line is in the form \(Ax + By = C\). We can rewrite the equation \(3x - 4y = 6\) in slope-intercept form \(y = mx + b\) to find the slope \(m\). Starting with the original equation: \[ 3x - 4y = 6 \] Rearranging gives: \[ -4y = -3x + Show more…
