Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Hey for the second one I got y = -3/4x -0.5 I'm not sure if its correct though sorry if not
ill try my best to explain my solution though
1. From the parallel equation (3x + 4y = 12) all we need to do is find the slope

So the easiest way to do so is to put the said equation in y-intercept form

y=mx +b
m= slope

b= y intercept

so 1. 3x + 4y = 12

=

4y = 12-3x

divide that by 4 to get only y

y=3-3/4x

-3/4 is our slope

y=-3/4x+b

than we have a point -2, -2

if we put -2 for y

-2=-3/4x+b

and then we put our -2 for x
-2 = -3/4 * -2 + b

=

-2 = -1.5 +b
b=-0.5

Answer : y=-3/4x-0.5
