Solved by pluggable solver: Finding the Equation of a Line Parallel or Perpendicular to a Given Line

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " Since any two parallel lines have the same slope we know the slope of the unknown line is \"5%2F2\" (its from the slope of \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax-5\" which is also \"5%2F2\").\n" ); document.write( "Also since the unknown line goes through (4,10), we can find the equation by plugging in this info into the point-slope formula
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " Point-Slope Formula:
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y-y%5B1%5D=m%28x-x%5B1%5D%29\" where m is the slope and (\"x%5B1%5D\",\"y%5B1%5D\") is the given point
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y-10=%285%2F2%29%2A%28x-4%29\" Plug in \"m=5%2F2\", \"x%5B1%5D=4\", and \"y%5B1%5D=10\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y-10=%285%2F2%29%2Ax-%285%2F2%29%284%29\" Distribute \"5%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y-10=%285%2F2%29%2Ax-20%2F2\" Multiply
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax-20%2F2%2B10\"Add \"10\" to both sides to isolate y
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax-20%2F2%2B20%2F2\" Make into equivalent fractions with equal denominators
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax%2B0%2F2\" Combine the fractions
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax%2B0\" Reduce any fractions
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " So the equation of the line that is parallel to \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax-5\" and goes through (\"4\",\"10\") is \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax%2B0\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " So here are the graphs of the equations \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax-5\" and \"y=%285%2F2%29%2Ax%2B0\"
