Question

a given line has the equation \\(10x+2y=-2\\).

what is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point \\((0, 12)\\)?

\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(y=-5x+12\\)
\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(5x+y=12\\)
\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(y-12=5(x-0)\\)
\\(\bigcirc\\) \\(5x+y=-1\\)

Explanation:

Find the slope of the given line

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$
$$ m = -5 $$

Determine the equation of the parallel line

$$ LATEXBLOCK1 $$

Answer:

  • (A) \(y=-5x+12\) (Correct answer)
  • (B) \(5x+y=12\)
  • (C) \(y-12=5(x-0)\)
  • (D) \(5x+y=-1\)
