find an equation of the line that passes through 22 and is p
find an equation of the line that passes through (-2,2) and is parallel to the line passing through 3x-4y-22=0
Solution
given equation of line 3x-4y-22=0
4y=3x-22
y=(3/4)x -(22/4)
y=(3/4)x -(11/2)
slope of given line =3/4
we know slopes of parallel lines are equal
so slope of line parallel to 3x-4y-22=0 is 3/4
now
equation of parallel line with slope 3/4 passing through (-2,2) is
y-2=(3/4)(x-(-2))
y-2=(3/4)(x+2)
y-2=(3/4)x +(3/2)
y=(3/4)x +(3/2)+2
y=(3/4)x +(7/2)
therefore equation of the line that passes through (-2,2) and is parallel to the line passing through 3x-4y-22=0 is
y=(3/4)x +(7/2)
