find equation of the line parallel to the line `3x - 4y + 2 = 0` and passing through the point `(-2, 3).`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let equation of a line parallel to line `3x-4y+2=0` is ,
`3x-4y+lambda=0` ………`(1)`
This line passes through the point `(-2,3)`.
`:. 3(-2)-4(3)+lambda=0`
`implies lambda=18`
From equation `(1)`,
required equation is, `3x-4y+18=0`
