Answer:

y = 3x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 4 is in this form with slope m = 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (4, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = 12 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 12 = - 14

y = 3x - 14 ← equation of parallel line
