In slope-intercept form, 3x+2y-4=0 ==> y = -\(\frac{3}{2}\)x + 2
A line parallel to this line must have a slope of -1.5
5x−y+10=0 ==> y = 5x + 10 ==> To find the x-intercept, let y = 0 ==> x = -2
From the options given, C has a slope of -1.5 and x-intercept of -2, so option C is the answer.

Line P is described by the equation 3x+2y−4=0. Which of the following lines is parallel to P and has the same x-intercept as the line 5x−y+10=0?
to be parallel the slope must be -3/2 and the y intercept should not be 2, x intercept= -2
A,B and C have the same slope
but only option C has the same X-intercept
option C is the correct option!!
