               Find the equation of a line parallel to y-5=6x-10 that passes through (4,10)

❖ If lines are parallel to each other, they have the same slope.

So the slope of the line parallel to y-5=6x-10 is 6.

Now, since we're also given the point crossed by the line, we write the equation in point-slope form:-

[tex]\sf{y-y_1=m(x-x_1)}[/tex]

Substitute 10 for y₁, 6 for m and 4 for x₁:-

[tex]\sf{y-10=6(x-4)}[/tex]

On simplification,

[tex]\sf{y-10=6x-24}[/tex]

Adding 10 to both sides results in:-

[tex]\sf{y=6x-14}[/tex]

So we conclude that Option A is correct.

Good luck.
