Question

Line L has equation 2x - 3y = 5. Line M passes through the point (3, -10) and is parallel to line L. Determine the equation for line M. A) 2x + 3y = -24 B) 2x - 3y = 36 C) 2x - 3y = -10 D) 3x + 2y = -24

Answer 1

they are parallel so they should have the same slope

Solve for Y
-3y = 5-2x

y= (5-2x)/-3

y= 2/3x - (5/3) = Line L

Line M use y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-10)=2/3(x-3)
y+10=2/3x-2
y=2/3x-12 = Line M
B is your answer
