You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find an equation for a line parallel to 4x + 5y + 2 = 0
----------------
1st: Find the slope of the given line.
y = (-4/5)x - (2/5)
slope = -4/5
-------------------
2nd: Slope of the parallel line must be -4/5
------
Ans: y = (-4/5)x + (any number) will be parallel to the given line.
