Find the equation of the line. write the equation using function notation. through (-5, -3); parallel to 2x+5=7

The equation of a parallel line in point-slope form would be f(x) = -2/5x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, we must first find the slope of the original line. We can do this by solving for y.

2x + 5y = 7

5y = -2x + 7

y = -2/5x + 7/5

Now that we have the slope of the original line, we can use the point and slope and put them into the base form of point-slope form. Then we solve for y to get the final result.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 3 = -2/5(x + 5)

y + 3 = -2/5x - 2

y = -2/5x - 5

Then to get the function notation, we need to replace the y with f(x).

f(x) = -2/5x - 5
