What is the equation of the line parallel to 3 x plus 5 y is equal to 11 that passes through the point open paren 15 comma 4 close paren ?

Rewrite 3x + 5y = 11 as y = −(3/5)x + 11/5, so its slope is −3/5. A parallel line has the same slope; using (15, 4), 4 = −(3/5)(15) + b gives b = 13, so the equation is y = −(3/5)x + 13.
