Write an equation in Slope-intercept form for the line that is parallel to the line y = -5/2 x + 6 and that passes through the given point (-4,-6).

Parallel lines have the same slope
\n" ); document.write( "Slope of line: \"y+=+%28-5%2F2%29x+%2B+6\": \"-5%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "m, or slope of equation requested: \"-+5%2F2\"; Point: (- 4, - 6)
\n" ); document.write( "Using point-slope form: \"y+-+y%5B1%5D+=+m%28x+-+x%5B1%5D%29\", we get:
