Which equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x – 4y = 7 and passes through the point (-4,-2)? Select two options.
Oy=-*x+1
3x - 4y = -4
4x - 3y = -3
Oy-2 = *(x-4)
Oy+2 = (x+4)

4y = 3x + 4

3x-4y = -4 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

This is what we do.

We first express the first equation in the form;

y = mx + c

where m represents the slope of the line

Thus we have;

4y = 3x -7

divide through by 4

y = 3/4x -7/4

Thus the slope here is the coefficient of x which is 3/4

Now, since the lines are parallel, it means that their slopes are equal

So the slope of the other line too is 3/4

We now use the point slope form to find the equation of this other line

Mathematically, that would be;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where (x1,y1) = (-4,-2)

Substituting this into the point slope equation, we have;

y-(-2) = 3/4(x-(-4))

y + 2 = 3/4(x + 4)

Cross multiply

4y + 8 = 3x + 12

4y = 3x + 12-8

4y = 3x + 4
