Question

HELP ME WITH MY GEOMETRY PLZ!?!?! HAVE TO FINNISH DIS BEFORE MIDNIGHT!!!!

Answer 1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Identify the slope
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$y = \frac{5}{2} x + 8$

$Slope = \frac{5}{2}$

Parallel lines share the same slope. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert Slope into the general equation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$y = mx+ c$

$y = \frac{5}{2} x + c$

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$At\ point \ (-8,0)$

$y = \frac{5}{2} (-8) + c$

$0 = -20 + c$

$c = 20$

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert the y-intercept into the equation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$y = \frac{5}{2} x + c$

$y = \frac{5}{2} x + 20$


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$Answer : y = \frac{5}{2} x + 20$
