Question

Geometry help please

Answer 1

Let's begin.

The equation of a line is like :
`y=mx+p`

You must know that two parallel lines have the same slope, so here the slope will be
`m= (1)/(2)`.

Now we have the "m".

We just have to write an equation in order to find the letter "p".

Here we have :


`y=-5`

`x=10`


Therefore :


`y=mx+p`

`-5= (1)/(2)*10+p`

`-5=5+p`

`-5-5=p`

`-10=p`

In short, the answer would be D)
`y= (1)/(2) x-10`

Hope this helps !
