Write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line. Keep all fractions in improper form

(Note: this answer is assuming that the equation has to be put in slope-intercept format.)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Let's use the point-slope formula to determine what the answer would be. To do that though, we would need two things: the slope and a point that the equation would cross through. We already have the point it would cross through, (-3,-4), based on the given information. So, in the next step, let's find the slope.

2) We know that the slope has to be parallel to the given line, . Remember that slopes that are parallel have the same slope - so, let's simply take the slope from the given equation. Since it's already in slope-intercept form, we know that the slope then must be .

3) Finally, let's put the slope we found and the x and y values from (-3, -4) into the point-slope formula and solve:

Therefore, is our answer. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of length to breadth=4:3

let breadth be x m

4/3=12/x(do cross multiplication)

3*12=x*4

36=4x

36/4=x

9=x

therefore breadth= 6m
