     Determine the equation of the line. Write the answer in standard form using only integers as the coefficients. 
The line through (0, 9) that is parallel to the line 3x+5y=15.

      The eq&#39;n given slope and a point is (y-y1) = m(x-x1)


               where (x1,y1) = (0,9)    and slope is = slope of the line 
                                                                 3x+5y = 15

                 slope is y = -3x/5 +15/5
                          y = -3x/5 +3 

                 slope m = -3/5

      The eq&#39;n is y-9 = -3/5(x-0)

                  y-9 = -3x/5

                5(y-9) =-3x

                5y - 45 = -3x
   The standard form is 3x+5y = 45</PRE>
