Lesson 10

Parallel Lines in the Plane

Problem 1

Select all equations that are parallel to the line \(2x + 5y = 8\).

A:

\(y=\frac{2}{5}x + 4\)

B:

\(y=\text-\frac{2}{5}x + 4\)

C:

\(y-2=\frac{5}{2}(x+1)\)

D:

\(y-2=\text-\frac{2}{5}(x+1)\)

E:

\(10x+5y=40\)

Problem 5

Priya and Han each wrote an equation of a line with slope \(\frac13\) that passes through the point \((1,2)\). Priya’s equation is \(y-2 = \frac13 (x-1)\) and Han’s equation is \(3y - x = 5\). Do you agree with either of them? Explain or show your reasoning.

Problem 8

Here are some transformation rules. For each rule, describe whether the transformation is a rigid motion, a dilation, or neither.

  1. \((x,y) \rightarrow (2x,y+2)\)
  2. \((x,y) \rightarrow (2x,2y)\)
  3. \((x,y) \rightarrow (x+2,y+2)\)
  4. \((x,y) \rightarrow (x-2,y)\)
