Question 30648:
I'm asking to write an equation of a line that contains th given point and is parallel to the given line. Answer by Fermat(136) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the point is:(8,0).
the line is:y=1/2x+5.
slope of line is m = 1/2.
Any line passsing through the point (x1,y1) with a slope m can be written as,
(y-y1) = m(x-x1)
We have: m=1/2, (x1,y1) = (8,0)
So,
(y-0) = (1/2)(x-8)
y = (1/2)x - 4
