Hat is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (−2, 4)? y = – x – 1 y = – x + 5 y = x – 1 y = x + 5

The format of the given line is 5x + 2y = 12. The format of a parallel line will be almost identical; only the constant will be different.

So start with the framework 5( ) + 2( ) = C and substitute -2 for x and 4 for y:

5( -2) + 2( 4 ) = C

Then C = -10 + 8, or C = -2. Thus, the desired equation is 5x + 2y = -2.

answer: f = 32.2m

step-by-step explanation: that is the answer

parallel lines have the same slope. so if the green line has a slope of -4, the slope of the red line is also -4.
