Question

Write the equation of the line. 7) Through (-6, -7) parallel to -2x + 7y = 26 A) y = 2 7 x - 37 7 B) y = 6 7 x + 26 7 C) y = 7 2 x + 7 2 D) y = - 2 7 x + 37 7

Answer 1

Answer: A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:first you should find the slope ,according the parallel line ,and  the slope of standard form Ax+By=C is -A/B  slope=-(-2)/7=2/7 and passes through (-6,-7).we have the step y-(-7)=2/7(x+6) .

.In fact,we don't need to do all the steps.we can match the slope with the answers below.
