Write the equation of the line parallel to y=2/3x+4/3 that passes through the point (-5,2)

y=3x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

y= (-2/3)x + b,  plug in y=-8 and x=3 and solve for b

-8 = (-2/3)(3) + b

-8 =-2 + b

b = -6

y=(-2/3)x -6  is parallel to y= (-2/3)x + 4 and goes through the point (3,-8)

-2/3 is the slope of the line.  slopes have to be the same for parallel lines

-6 is the y intercept. The same line shifted down by 10 units,  from 4 to -6

each side has a different length.
