Lines / and m parallel. Can be represented by the 3x+4y=8. If line m passes thorough the point (2,-5), which equation can be used to find the equation of line m

y=−34x+2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. Solve for the slope in the first line by converting the equation to slope-intercept form.

3x + 4y = 12

4y = –3x + 12

y = –(3/4)x + 3

slope = –3/4

We know that the second line will also have a slope of –3/4, and we are given the point (1,2). We can set up an equation in slope-intercept form and use these values to solve for the y-intercept.

y = mx + b

2 = –3/4(1) + b

2 = –3/4 + b

b = 2 + 3/4 = 2.75

Plug the y-intercept back into the equation to get our final answer.

y = –(3/4)x + 2.75
