Question

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to y-5x+2=0. The line you are looking for passes through (-3, -8). Write the line in standard form.

Answer 1

Ax +By= C
this is standard form
like the last problem
slope=5
so what would you do? look at last problem? tell me what you think

Answer 2

so the line is 5x-y=-2

Answer 3

but how do the -3 and -8 factor into this problem?

Answer 4

5x-y=2 would be the y-5x+2=0, but thats not the one your doing.
What did we do with the (-5,1) from last problem
