Question

Consider the line y equals 2 over 5 x plus 4.

Answer 1

the parallel linear equation is:

y = (2/5)*x - 3

How to find the parallel line?

Two lines are parallel if the lines have the same slope but different y-intercept.

Here we know the line equation:

y = (2/5)*x + 4

Then a parallel line is of the form:

y = (2/5)*x + c

Where c is different than 4.

We want this line to pass through (5, -1), then:

-1 = (2/5)*5 + c

-1 = 2 + c

-1 - 2 = -3 = c

Then the parallel linear equation is:

y = (2/5)*x - 3
