Question

Find the equation of a line that runs through (2,5) and is parallel to the line with a slope of 2/4

A) y-5=3/4(x-2)
B) y-2=3/4(x-5)
C) y-5=-3/4x-2

Answer 1

parallel lines have the same slope

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 2/4
(2,5)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 5
now we sub
y - 5 = 2/4(x - 2)

now if there is a typo and ur slope is 3/4....it would be :
y - 5 = 3/4(x - 2)
