What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (12, −2)?

a)y=-6/5x+10
b)y=-6/5x+12
c)y=-5/6x-10
d)y=5/6x-12

answer:

d

step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines have equal slopes

let's find the slope of the line shown, so we know the parallel line to this will have same slope.

slope has a formula of

where is point 1 on the line & is point 2 on the line.

let's take (0,-4) as point 1 and (12,6) as point 2. now plugging in the values, we get:

looking at the choices, only option d has same slope as this. so option d is correct.

answer: you need to organize this better it does not make sense.

step-by-step explanation: ?

-8/2y-8=5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16

we move all terms to the left:

-8/2y-8-(5/y+4-7y+8/y^2-16)=0

we can not solve this equation
