Question

Find an equation of the line passing through the point (5,4) and parallel to the line whose equation is 2x+y=3

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope formula.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)    you have :  x_1 =5  and  y_1 =4

m the slope  m= -2 (same slope for the line : 2x+y=3 because this lines are parallel and you can write y=-2x+3

an equation for this line is : y-4 = -2(x-5)
