Answer: y=-4/3x-(34/3)

Explanation:

Since we want to find the equation of a parallel line, we know the slope is going to stay the same. If the slope is changed, the lines will intersect at one point. All we need to do is to find the y-intercept. We can do that by using the point provided.


2=-(4)/(3) (-10)+b


2=(40)/(3) +b


b=-(34)/(3)

Now that we know the y-intercept, we can complete the equation.

y=-4/3x-(34/3)
