Step 1: Find the original slope. We have y = 5X. So, our first slope is 5.
\n" ); document.write( "step 2: We want the parallel slope. So, we use the same slope from step 1; 5.
\n" ); document.write( "step 3: Put slope and point information into slope intercept form to find b.
\n" ); document.write( "\"-1+=+%285%29%2A2+%2B+b\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"b+=+-11\"
\n" ); document.write( "step 4: write the equation:
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+5x+-+11\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
