write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to give line express in y=mx+b (5,-2), 2x+9y=5

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

m = 2/9 -2 = 2/9*5 +b -2 = 10/9 + b b = -28/9 Therefore , y + 2/9x-28/9 (not sure If im right though , someone should check it xD)

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Let's check.

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

saifoo am i right ?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Solve it now.

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

LOL y = -2/9 - 8/9 Am i right , right >?

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

y = -2/9x - 8/9 *

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

wtf , how is that possible >

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

why isn't it?

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

isnt it -2/9 xD

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

i didnt understand what you wrote before xD

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[y = -\frac{2 x}{9}-\frac{8}{9 }\]

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

LOL , i was right xD

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

The fact is, i never said u r wrong.
