Parallel slope is $\"3x%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( "In y=mx+b, y=-1, x=5, and m= $\"3%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-1=%283%285%29%2F4%29%2Bb\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-1=15%2F4%2Bb\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-1-15%2F4=b\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-19%2F4=b\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=2x%2F4-19%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-2x%2F4%2By%2B19%2F4=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x-4y-19=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Hence, the equation is $\"2x-4y-19=0\"$
