To find: an equation that represents the new path.
Answer to Problem 28E
Therefore, the equation of the new path is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Consider the line passing through the points
The objective is to find the equation that represents the path which is parallel to the line which passes through the points
Calculation:
The slope of line which passing through two points
Therefore, the slope of the line
Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal.
The other line passing through the point
Use the formula
Slope
This implies,
Hence, the equation of the new path
Conclusion:
Therefore, the equation of the new path is
