Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x - 5 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 6, - 5) into the partial equation
- 5 = - 8 + c ⇒ c = - 5 + 8 = 3
y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + 3 ← equation of parallel line
