Question 1032409: Write the equation of the line that satisfies the given conditions. Express the final equation in standard form. Contains the point (5, 1) and is parallel to the line 2x − y = 4

can you help me figure this out thank you

You want slope to be same as this equation, so slope will be 2, for both lines parallel.

Plug the point coordinates into point slope form equation.
---------Do anything else you need to.


Actually, the easier and simpler way is to keep everything in standard form, as was the given equation. Coefficients on x and y will be unchanged.

---------------the answer.
