A unit rate compares a quantity to one unit of another quantity
Plot a point at (0,-1)
Then from that point, go down 3 points, and to the right one point. Repeat that until you hit the bottom of the graph or run out of room. From the first point (0,-1), go up 3 and to the left 1 until you run out of room on the graph. Should be a straight line
Answer:
4y = 3x + 4
3x-4y = -4 is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
This is what we do.
We first express the first equation in the form;
y = mx + c
where m represents the slope of the line
Thus we have;
4y = 3x -7
divide through by 4
y = 3/4x -7/4
Thus the slope here is the coefficient of x which is 3/4
Now, since the lines are parallel, it means that their slopes are equal
So the slope of the other line too is 3/4
We now use the point slope form to find the equation of this other line
Mathematically, that would be;
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
where (x1,y1) = (-4,-2)
Substituting this into the point slope equation, we have;
y-(-2) = 3/4(x-(-4))
y + 2 = 3/4(x + 4)
Cross multiply
4y + 8 = 3x + 12
4y = 3x + 12-8
4y = 3x + 4
