Question 1182886
.
WRITE THE EQUATION OF THE LINE PARALLEL TO 4X-5Y-10=0 THAT PASSES THROUGH (0,-3).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Yesterday (Jan.19, 2026) I witnessed strange behavior from @CPhill on this forum.


A couple of days ago I refuted an incorrect solution provided by @mananth at this spot. 
@mananth's solution was incorrect due to elementary arithmetic errors that he made on the way.


OK, let's check the @CPhill (=the @mananth) answer y = -4x + 6.00.
For it, substitute the coordinates of the point (0,-3) into this equation.
Then the left side is y=-3, while the right side is -4*0+6 = 6.
So, the equation is not satisfied; hence, the point (0,-3) does not belong to the line.


Thus, the @mananth's solution had nothing in common with the correct solution - 
which is why I redid/corrected/fixed it.


Now @CPhill has copied and reposted this incorrect solution by @mananth again.


This is not the only such action by @CPhill.


Yesterday, @CPhill made several (about 15) other similar actions of the same kind with other posts 
where I refuted @mananth's solutions.


I consider these @CPhyll's actions to be wrong, leading to a distortion of the truth on this forum.
Therefore, I strongly protest against such actions by @CPhill and consider it necessary that visitors 
to this forum be aware of this.


I recommend to a reader to ignore the post by @CPhill.
