What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (5, −4) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x + 5y = 10?

1 answer:

5 0

2x + 5y = 10
5y = -2x + 10
y = -2/5 x + 2
so slope = -2/5

passes through the point (5, −4)
y = mx + b
b = y - mx
b = -4 - (-2/5)(5)
b = -4 + 2
b = -2

equation
y = -2/5 x - 2

hope it helps
