Find A if the graph of the equation
Ax + 3y = 5 is parallel to the graph of 5x - 2y = 4

I tried to solve the problem, but I couldn't really get a good answer.

Thanks!

If two equations are parallel, they must have the same slope. So solve the second equations. When you put it into slope-intercept form, find the number next to the x. That will be the slope and will equal a.

A/3 must equal 5/-2
so 15 = -2A
A = -15/2
