Find the equation of the line which passes through the point (2,-3)
and which is parallel to the line 5y +3x = 10.

Visualize the problem:

Find two points on the line 5y + 3x = 10 and plot the line.
Plot the point (2,-3).
Sketch the line through (-2,3) and parallel to 5y + 3x = 10.

Show work.

Find two points on the line. Suggestion: Find the y coordinates corresponding to x values of 0 and 5.
