Pls help :( A city planner is rerouting traffic in order to work on a stretch of road. The equation of the path of the old route can be described as y = two fifthsx − 4. What should the equation of the new route be if it is to be parallel to the old route and will go through point (Q, P)?

y − Q = negative five halves(x − P)
y − Q = two fifths(x − P)
y − P = negative five halves(x − Q)
y − P = two fifths(x − Q)

Given:

Old route :

New route is parallel to the old route and will go through point (Q, P).

To find:

The equation of new route.

Solution:

Slope intercept form of a line is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

On comparing , we get

Slope of is .

Slope of parallel lines are same. So, the slope of new route is also .

New route will go through point (Q, P) with slope , so the equation for new route is

where, m is slope.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

answer: ask

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is b
