Question 693611: I need to write and equation in slope -intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parrallel to the graph of each equation
5x-4y=1;(-8,2)
Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Parallel lines have the SAME slope
In 5x - 4y = 1, solve for y
4y = 5x - 1
y = has a slope of
...
Using the slope of and the point (-8, 2), apply the point-slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)
y - 2 = (x--8)
y - 2 =
y-2 =
y =
