Question
Which equation has as its graph a line parallel to the graph of the line that passes through the points (-8,2) and (-3,3)?
a (y-2) = -(x+8)
b y=-5x+10
c x-5y=-6
d -y=-1/5x+7
a (y-2) = -(x+8)
b y=-5x+10
c x-5y=-6
d -y=-1/5x+7

parallel lines have the same slope
the slope of your given line
= (3-2)/(-3+8)
= 1/5
now which of the given lines has a slope of 1/5 ?
the slope of your given line
= (3-2)/(-3+8)
= 1/5
now which of the given lines has a slope of 1/5 ?
