Find the equation of a line passing through the point (2, 3) and parallel to the line 3xтАУ 4y + 5 = 0.



Answer -

Given:

The equation isparallel to 3x┬атИТ┬а4y + 5 = 0 and pass through (2, 3)

The equation of theline parallel to 3x┬атИТ┬а4y + 5 = 0 is

3x тАУ 4y+┬а╬╗┬а= 0,

Where,┬а╬╗┬аisa constant.

It passes through (2,3).

Substitute the valuesin above equation, we get

3 (2) тАУ 4 (3) + ╬╗ = 0

6 тАУ 12 +┬а╬╗┬а=0

╬╗┬а= 6

Now, substitute thevalue of ╬╗┬а=┬а6 in 3x тАУ 4y +┬а╬╗┬а= 0, we get

3x┬атИТ┬а4y + 6

тИ┤ The required line is3x┬атИТ┬а4y + 6 = 0.
