Question

The equation of line L is y=5x+1

Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

L₁ is y = 5x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

L₂ is 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 ( subtract - 10x + 3 from both sides )

2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = 5x - $\frac{3}{2}$ ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

Since L₁ and L₂ have equal slopes then they are parallel lines
