Question

Find the equation of the line through (-1, 0) that is parallel to the line 3x + 5y = -1

Answer 1

hint rearrange the equation 3x +5y = -1 o the form y = mx +c where m is the gradient, can you do that?

Answer 2

3x+5y=-1
substract 3x both sides---->5y=-1-3x
Divide by 5 both sides----->y=(-3/5)x-1/5

Answer 3

But we haven't finished yet, right?
We will have to use this formula:
\[y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\]
Remember it?

Answer 4

yes you have to

Answer 5

yes i remember
