Solution

The question seems to be a bit jumbled, but I understand that you're asking for the equation of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation "y = 2/3x - 6".

Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the given line is 2/3. Therefore, the equation of any line parallel to the given line will be in the form "y = 2/3x + b", where "b" is the y-intercept.

Looking at the multiple choice answers:

  1. 2x - 3y = 9
  2. 2x + 3y = 21
  3. 3x + 2y = -10
  4. 2y - 3x = -4

We can rearrange these equations into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) to find the one with a slope of 2/3.

  1. 3y = 2x - 9 -> y = 2/3x - 3
  2. 3y = 2x - 21 -> y = 2/3x - 7
  3. 2y = -3x - 10 -> y = -3/2x - 5
  4. 2y = 3x + 4 -> y = 3/2x + 2

From these, we can see that the first and second equations have a slope of 2/3, so they are parallel to the given line. The third and fourth equations are not, as their slopes are not 2/3.
