find the equation of the line parallel to 2x+5y=10, through the point (15,-4).Write the answer in slope-intercept form. Write your answer using integers or simplified fractions
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the slope of 2x+5y = 10
\n" ); document.write( "5y = -2x+10
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-2/5)x + 2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "slope = -2/5
\n" ); document.write( "==================
\n" ); document.write( "Equation Form: y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "You are y = -4 when x = 15, and you know m = -2/5
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"b\":
\n" ); document.write( "-4 = (-2/5)15 + b
\n" ); document.write( "-4 = -6 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = 2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-2/5)x + 2
\n" ); document.write( "====================
