The equation of the line passing through the point (2,1) and parallel to the line 4x - 3y = 1 is:
Added by Marina O.
Step 1
To find the slope of the line, we need to rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m is the slope. 4x - 3y = 1 -3y = -4x + 1 y = (4/3)x - 1/3 The slope of the given line is 4/3. Show more…
