Answer:
- 5x - 7y = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Given line:
- 5x - 7y = 8
Convert the equation into slope-intercept form:
- 5x - 7y = 8
- 7y = 5x - 8
- y = 5/7x - 8/7
The line parallel to this has same slope of 5/7 and passes through the point (2, - 1).
Use point-slope form and convert the equation into standard form:
- y - (- 1) = 5/7(x - 2)
- y + 1 = 5/7x - 10/7
- 7y + 7 = 5x - 10
- 5x - 7y = 7 + 10
- 5x - 7y = 17
- 5x-7y=8
Isolate y
- 7y=5x-8
- y=5/7x-8/7
Here
- m=5/7
Parallel lines have equal slope
Point(2,-1)
