Consider the line y = 3/5x + 4. Find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point left (- 5,-1)

y=3/5x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y-(-1)=3/5(x-(-5))

y+1=3/5(x+5)

5y+5=3x+15

5y=3x+10

y=3/5x+2

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
