Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (4,5) and parallel to the to the line described by y=5x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel ⇒ So the slopes will definitely be equal

So,

Slope = m = 5

Now,

Point = (x,y) = (4,5)

So, x = 4, y = 5

Putting these in the slope intercept form to get b

5 = (5)(4) + b

5 = 20 + b

b = -20+5

b = -15

So, Putting m and b in the slope intercept form to get the required equation,

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
