CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME ( I HAVE TO TURN THIS IN 5 MIN!!!!!) O///O
How do I write something like this : through: (4,2), parallel to y = -3/4x - 5 into a point-slope form???

Please answer this correctly so I can mark BRAINLIEST!!!

Respuesta :

Answer:   y-2 = (-3/4)(x - 4)

Explanation:

Point slope form in general is

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

Where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the given point. From here you plug in the slope m = -3/4 and the point (x1,y1) = (4,2). There's not much to do from here.

Side note: parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts.
