Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y = -
2/3x+8 that passes through (4, -5).

A. y-4=(x+5)
B. y+5=2/3 (x-4)
C. y+5 = 3/2(x-4)
D. y-5=-2/3(x + 4)


Sagot :

It wouldn’t be any of those- because its in point-slope form ( y-y1=m(x-x1) ) the slope is -2/3, then the -5 (y) turns to +5 because there’s 2 negatives- since the x is positive it stays subtraction

The Correct equation would be y+5=-2/3(x-4)

Hope that helps :)
