  • y=1/2x-10

Comapre to slope intercept form

  • Slope=m=1/2

Parallel lines have equal slope

Equation of parallel line in point slope form

  • y-5=1/2(x-2)
  • 2y-10=x-2
  • 2y=x+8
  • y=1/2x+4

Answer:

y =
(1)/(2) x + 4

Explanation:

1). Slopes of ║ lines are equal.

2). Equation of the line passing through the point (
x_(1) ,
y_(1) ) is

y -
y_(1) = m( x -
x_(1) )

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

y =
(1)/(2) x - 10 , slope m =
(1)/(2)

( 2 , 5 )

y - 5 =
(1)/(2) ( x - 2 )

y =
(1)/(2) x - 1 + 5

y =
(1)/(2) x + 4
