Find an equation for the line parallel to 4y-40x=24 and goes through the point (-7,1). Write your answer in the form y=mx+b.😊😊
Equation: 4y - 40x = 24_____40x - 4y = - 24_____4(10x - y) = 4(- 6)____10x - y = - 6

Equation parallel to the above, and passing through point (- 7, 1):

(1) Simplify the given equation by dividing by 4




(2) Any line parallel to that line has an equation of the form  for some constant C.  To find the equation of the line parallel to the given line passing through (-7,1), substitute those coordinates in the equation to find C:









(3) Put the equation in the required form:
