Which of the following equations represents a line that is parallel to the line 3x - 2y = 12
and passes through the point (7, 10)?

Respuesta :

irspow

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12=3x-2y

2y+12=3x

2y=3x-12

y=(3x-12)/2

y=mx+b

To be parallel to the line above our line must have the same slope or m. The above line has a slope of 3/2 or 1.5 so the parallel line will be

y=1.5x+b, using point (7,10) we can solve for the y intercept or b

10=1.5(7)+b

10=10.5+b

b=-0.5 so our line is

y=1.5x-0.5
