What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 10 and passes through the point (–5, 1)? Check all that apply. y = −Two-fifthsx − 1 2x + 5y = −5 y = −Two-fifthsx − 3 2x + 5y = −15 y − 1= −Two-fifths(x + 5)

So the right options are:

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1[/tex]

[tex]2x+5y = -5[/tex]

[tex]y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)[/tex]

Further explanation:

Given equation of line is:

2x+5y=10

We have to convert it into point-slope form

[tex]2x+5y=10\\5y=-2x+10\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{10}{5}\\y=-\frac{2}{5}x+2[/tex]

The co-efficient of x is the slope of the line

So,

[tex]m= -\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

As the required line is parallel to given line, it will also have same slope.

Let m1 be the slope of required line

Then the line will be:

[tex]y=m_1x+b[/tex]

Putting the value of slope

[tex]y=\frac{2}{5}x+b[/tex]

Putting (-5,1) in the equation to find the value of b

[tex]1=-\frac{2}{5}(-5)+b\\1=2+b\\b=1-2\\b=-1[/tex]

Putting the values of slope and b in equation

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1[/tex]

Multiplying the whole equation by 5 will give us:

5y = -2x-5

2x+5y = -5

Another form of equation of line is Point-slope form

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Putting the values of slope and point in the equation, we get

[tex]y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)[/tex]

So the right options are:

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1[/tex]

[tex]2x+5y = -5[/tex]

[tex]y-1=-\frac{2}{5}(x+5)[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 10 and passes through the point (–5, 1)? Check all that apply.  

y = −Two-fifthsx − 1

2x + 5y = −5  

y = −Two-fifthsx − 3

2x + 5y = −15  

y − 1= −Two-fifths(x + 5)

The answer? All that apply A B and E
