Given
Y = (2/3)*x-2
Find
Parallel equation at points (3,-4)
Solution
In order for 2 equations to be parallel they need to have the same slope.
Therefore, the slope of the parallel equation is m = 2/3
Now to put this in slope intercept form
Y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
Knowing the slope is m=2/3
The parallel equation is thus far
Y = (2/3)x+b
Apply the points of interest
-4 = (2/3)*(3) + b
-4 - 2 = b
b = -6
Solution
Y = (2/3) x - 6
