The equation of line q is 5y - 4x = 10. write the standard form of the equation of the line that fits the following description: parallel to q and passes through the point at (-15, 8)

y =  x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line q is 5y - 4x = 10

                                       5y = 4x + 10

                                       y =

If a line is parallel to this line the slope of the line will be the same as the given line =

Let the parallel line is y = mx + c

where m = slope

and    c = y-intercept

equation will be y =

This line passes through (-15, 8)

so   8 = (-15)   + c

8 = -12 + c

c = 12 + 8

c = 20

Now the equation of the parallel line will be y =  x + 20

ok
