Given the point (2,-3) passes through the
line.
We know that the equation of the line is given by
:
y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is any
point on the line.
We will substitute with the given point
( 2,-3)
==> y- (-3) = m(
x-2)
==> y+ 3 =
m(x-2)
Now we know that the line is parallel to the line
8x-2y+3 = 0
Then the slopes are
equal,
We will rewrite into the slope
form.
==> -2y = -8x
-3
==> y= 4x + 3/2
Then
the slope is 4.
Now we will substitute into the
equation.
==> y+ 3 =
m(x-2)
==> y+3 =
4(x-2)
==> y+3 = 4x -
8
==> y= 4x
-11
==> Then, the equation of the line
is : y-4x + 11 = 0
