Let the required line be y = mx+c in the slope intercept
form, where m is the slope and c is the y intercept.
We
determine m and c by the using given conditions.
m = 3/4,
given.
So y = (3/4)x+c
(1).
The line at (1) has the point (-8, 4) on
it.
Therefore 4 =
(3/4)*(-8)+c...(2)
(1)-(2) gives: y-4 =
(3/4)(x+8).
=> y -4 = (3/4)x +
6
We multiply 4 to get integral
coefficients.
4(y-4) =
3x+24
We
rearrange.
3x-4y+24+16=
0
3x-4y+40 = 0 is the required
line.
