What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the graph of y = 2x - 5 and passes through the point (8,10)?
a. y = -1/2 x + 14
b. y = 1/2 x + 14
c. y = -2x - 26
d. y = 2x - 6

Y=2x-6

Which is d

Step by step explanation:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines must have the same slope (in y=mx+b) m and a different y-intercept (b).

Out of all the options, d is the only one that preserves the slope.

But to check you know your equation is y=2x-b.

2(8)=16

16-b=10 meaning b=6...

Meaning the correct answer is D y=2x-6

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
