Through: (-2,-1), slope= 5/2
2 answers:
Answer:
y = x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Here m = , thus
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 2, - 1) into the partial equation
- 1 = - 5 + c ⇒ c = - 1 + 5 = 4
y = x + 4 ← equation of line

Please, see the offered decision:
1) common equation for lines is y=kx+b. If k₁=k₂ (for line 1 and line 2) ⇒ 'line 1' || 'line 2'.
2) for line 3x+5y=6 k= -3/5. It means (according to item 1) for unknown line k is the same (-3/5).
3) using points (0;3) it is easy to find parameter b (x=0, y=3) via y=kx+b:
3=0*(-3/5)+b ⇔ b=3.
4) finaly (k=-3/5; b=3):
