Question

Write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the given line. Express as y=mx+b
(-4,5); 5x=4y+3

Answer 1

so ur equation in slope intercept form is gonna be
y = (5/4)x - (3/4)
parallel means the same slope...
so in ur new equation parallel, you have y = (5/4)x + b
they give u a coordinate - plug and chug
5 = (5/4)(-4) + b
10 = b
so ur answer is
y = (5/4)x + 10
