Question 566123: what equatiion represents a lne that s parallel to the line y= -4x+5 ?

If two lines have the same slope than they are parallel.
Since the line you mentioned is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) it's easy to see that the slope (m) is -4
So any equation with a slope of -4 will be parallel. For example y=-4x+2
