I don't know what you are asking either. The point (2,-5) is not on the line whose equation is 2x+3y=30
You may have left out an earlier part of the question.
Are are asking you for the equation of a line that goes through (2,-5) AND is parallel or perpendicular to the line
2x+3y=30 ?
write your answer in standard form with integer coefficients.
2x+3y=30; (2,-5)
i don't understand how to do this, im not quiet sure i know what its asking.

the line must go through the point and must be parallel. im soory.
In that case the slope of the line is
-2/3,
since the given line can be written in y = mx + b form as
y = (-2/3)x = 10
The line you want has the equation
[y-(-5)] = (-2/3)(x-2)
which can be rewritten
y + 5 = -(2/3)x +4/3
y = (-2/3)x - 11/3

Write your answer in standard form with integer coefficients. 2x+3y=30; (2,-5)
That is a parallel line to the given line and contains the given point.
That is a parallel line to the given line and contains the given point.
