What is the equation of line parallel to 2x + 3y + 4 = 0 and passing through the point (– 4, –5) ?
-
- 2 x + 5y – 23 = 0
- –x + 5y = 20
- 2x – 3y – 30 = 0
- 2x + 3y + 23 = 0
Correct Option: D
Let the slope of required line be m.
Also,
| m1 = | ||
| 3 |
m1 = m2
(∵ lines are parallel) a
| m = | ||
| 3 |
Equation of line be y – y1 = m(x – x1)
| ⇒ (y + 5) = | (x + 4) | |
| 3 |
3y + 15 = –2x – 8
2x + 3y + 23 = 0
