Given:

The line that passes through the point (6,-1) and is parallel to the line represented by


8x+3y=15

Required:

To find the equation in standard form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point and the form of the equation given.

Therefore,


\begin{gathered} 8x+3y=8(6)+3(-1) \\ \\ =48-3 \\ \\ =45 \end{gathered}

Final Answer:
