Through (2,1); parallel to 10x - y = 2.
(Simplify your answer. Type your answer in standard form

Answer 1

equation of the line is

10x-y=19

Explanation:

Given:

(2,1) parallel to 10x-y=2

we have to find the slope

10x-y=

=>y=1x-2

Therefore slope of the line is

m=10

Now, equation of the slope m passing through a point (x1, y1)

is y-y1=m(x-x1)

Here the point is (2,1) and slope m=10.

=>equation of the line is:

 y-1=10(x-2)

 y-1=10x-20

 20-1=10x-y

19=10x-

=>10x-y=19

Hence the equation of the line

is 10x-y=19.
