Find the equation of the line. Write the equation using standard notation.
-Through $( 3,5 )$; parallel to the line $8 x + 5 y = 5$
A) $5 x + 8 y = 49$
B) $8 x + 5 y = 49$
C) $8 x - 5 y = 49$
D) $5 x - 8 y = 49$

The line parallel to $8x + 5y = 5$ will have the same coefficients for $x$ and $y$. Using the point $(3,5)$, substitute into $8x + 5y = c$ to find $c$: $8(3) + 5(5) = 24 + 25 = 49$. Thus, the equation is $8x + 5y = 49$.
