Equation:2x+4y+7=0……eqn(1)
Point (3,2)
Formula for the equation of a line is
Y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the gradient of the line and x1 and y1 is the x and y coordinates respectively
Let find the gradient(slop) of eqn(1) by making y the subject
4y=-2x-7
Y=-2x/4–7/4
Y=-1/2x-7/4
Therefore the gradient(slop) of eqn(1) is 1/2
Now since it is parallel to the equation given then there slop will be equation
Therefore using the gradient -1/2 And the point (3,2),Let put it into the formula and solve for the equation
y-y1=m(x-x1)….x1=3,y1=2,m=-1/2
y-2=-1/2(x-3)…multiply through by the denominator which is 2
2(y-2)=2×-1/2(x-3)
2y-4=-x+3,Let equate it to zero
x+2y-4-3=0
x+2y-7=0
Therefore the equation of the line is
x+2y-7=0
