If you are looking for a line: remember point-slope form. In this question you have a point (5,0) and you can get the slope from the equation. Since parallel lines have the same slope you can just use 4/5. Just plug the numbers into the equation: y-y1=m(x-x1) y-0=4/5(x-5) Therefore y=4/5x-4
-5(x+7)<-10. You need to use the distributive property. -5x - 35 < -10. You need to cancel out -35, so you add it to itself, & -10. -5x < 25. You need to divide -5 by itself & 25. x>-5.
