Answer: y = -5/3x + 4 and 5x + 2y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Firstly, we should substract 5x on both sides of the equation.
3y = -5x + 12
Then we divide by 3 on both sides of the equation. This would give us our answer.
y = -5/3x + 4
2. The answer is 5x + 2y = 4.
The slope of parallel lines should be the same. If we want to isolate y of the above the equation we should first substract 5x on both sides.
2y = -5x + 4
Then we should divide 2 on both sides of the equation.
y = -5/2x + 4
The equation above and y = -5/2x -7 have the same slope. Therefore, they are parallel.
