Step 1 :Given the equation of the line is \(-10x - 6y = -62\).
Step 2 :Rearrange the equation to the form \(y = mx + c\), we get \(y = \frac{5}{3}x + \frac{31}{3}\).
Step 3 :The slope of the given line is \(-\frac{5}{3}\).
Step 4 :Since the line we are looking for is parallel to the given line, its slope is also \(-\frac{5}{3}\).
Step 5 :Using the point-slope form of the line equation, \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\), where \((x_1, y_1)\) is the given point \((5,-8)\) and \(m\) is the slope \(-\frac{5}{3}\), we can find the equation of the line.
Step 6 :Substitute the values into the equation, we get \(y + 8 = -\frac{5}{3}(x - 5)\).
Step 7 :Simplify the equation to the standard form, we get \(5x + 3y = 1\).
Step 8 :Final Answer: The equation of the line through the point \((5,-8)\) that is parallel to the line with equation \(-10 x-6 y=-62\) is \(\boxed{5x + 3y = 1}\).
