write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,-1) and is parallel to the line y=3/4x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have same slope.

y= mx + b

Slope = m  & b = y-intercept

y = 3/4 x - 1

m = 3/4 ;   (-4 , -1)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w
