Answer:

The equation of the line is:

[tex]y -1= 5(x - 2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Pass through [tex](2,-1)[/tex]

Parallel to: [tex]y= 5x - 2[/tex]

Required

Determine the equation in point slope form

An equation has a general form:

[tex]y = mx + c[/tex]

Where:

[tex]m = slope[/tex]

Compare: [tex]y = mx + c[/tex] to [tex]y= 5x - 2[/tex]

we have:

[tex]m = 5[/tex]

Since the line is parallel to [tex]y= 5x - 2[/tex], then they have the same slope of 5

The line equation is then calculated using:

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

Where

[tex]m = 5[/tex]

[tex](x_1,y_1) =[/tex] [tex](2,-1)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y -1= 5(x - 2)[/tex]
