Answer:

y = (-2/5 ) x + 4

So the one you have marked is correct :)

Explanation:

To find the line parallel to line CD, we first need to determine the slope of line CD. The slope of a line is given by the formula (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). Here, the coordinates of points C and D are given as C=(0,-2) and D=(-5,0), respectively.

So the slope (m) of line CD would be:

m = (0 - -2) / (-5 - 0)

m = 2 / -5

m = -2/5

Therefore, the line that is parallel to line CD would have the same slope, which is -2/5.

Looking at the given equations, the line y=(-2/5)x+4 has the same slope of -2/5.

So, the line y=(-2/5)x+4 is parallel to line CD.

Hope this helps!
