All you have to do is rearrange to equation . . .
2y-5x=10 so that it looks like y=(5/2)x + 5
this new form is slope-intercept form. it should look familiar and is generally written as y=mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
so to find a line parallel to y=(5/2)x + 5 all you have to do is look at the slope. since the slope is (5/2) or 2.5 any line with a slope of 2.5 regardless of the y-intercept will be parallel

Which equation represent a line parallel to the line whose equation is 2y 5y equals 10?
When a straight line equation is parallel to another equation the slope remains the same but the y intercept changes
Which equation represnts a line parallel to the line whose equation is 2y 5x equals 10?
Somehow, sadly, the list of allowed choices that you carefully included with your questionhas been lost.The equation in the question can be re-arranged and written in slope-intercept form asy = -5/2 x + 5This tells us that the graph of the equation has a slope of -5/2 and a y-intercept of 5.Any line with the same slope and a different intercept is parallel to this one. So the equationof a parallel line isy = -5/2 + (any number except 5)
What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 5x 2y equals 11?
You are missing a - or + sign. The answer is 5/2 though. :)
What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is y - x equals 5?
1, it will have the same slope but the y intercept will be different.
What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line whose equation is y equals x plus 2?
Your answer can vary as long as it has a slope of 1. So it could be y=x+(insert number here)

What is a slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is y equals 5x 4?
The slope is 5. Parallel lines always have the same slope.
What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 5x 2y equals 11?
You are missing a - or + sign. The answer is 5/2 though. :)
Which equation represents a line that is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x plus 3y equals 12?
y=-(2/3)x + (n) where n can be any integer.
What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is y - x equals 5?
1, it will have the same slope but the y intercept will be different.
What is the equation of the line that passes through 3 4 and is parallel to the whose equation is y equals 3x - 2?
y -4 = 3(x-3)y = 3x -5
What is the equation of a line that is parallel to the line whose equation is y equals x plus 2?
Your answer can vary as long as it has a slope of 1. So it could be y=x+(insert number here)
Which equation represents a line that is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x 3y12?
2y= 3x+6
What is the equation of a line that passes through the point -3 -11 and is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x-y equals 4?
The equation of a parallel line is of the form 2x - y = c for some c. (-3, -11) is on this lime so 2*(-3) - (-11) = c -6 + 11 = c so that c = 5 and therefore, the equation is 2x - y = 5
What equation represents a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x plus 3y equals 12?
Rearranging the original equation, we get y=-(2/3)x+12. Since 12 is the constant, this is the point that the line of this equation will cut the y-axis if x=0. Therefore, -(2/3) is the gradient and for an equation to produce a parallel line, the gradient must be equal. Summing up, y=-(2/3)+c (where c equals any real number) would be parallel
What equation is whose graph is parallel to the graph of y0.5x-10?
If you mean: y = 0.5x-10 then an equation parallel to it will have the same slope of 0.5 but a y intercept different to -10
