write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the given line?

Line parallel to 9x - 2y = 5 has eq 9x - 2y = c.....( 1 )

If it passes thru' ( 9, - 4 ), then

9 ( 9) - 2( - 4) = c so that c = 89.

Hence, from (1),

the req'd equation is : 9x - 2y = 89. ................Ans.
