write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through (0,5) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x-y=3
parallel lines have the same slope.
4x-y =3 is the equation of given line
The equation of line in slope intercept fprm is y= mx+c where m is the slope and c is the y intercept
Write in slope intercept form
y= 4x-3
comparing with y= mx+c
m=4
The line passes through (0,5) and slope 4
Use the point-slope form of a linear equation to find the equation of the new line:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point
y-5=4x
y=4x+5
The equation of the line that is parallel to 4x - y = 3 and passing through (0, 5) in slope-intercept form is:
y = 4x + 5

write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through (0,5) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x-y=3
4x - y = 3
4x - 3 = y, or y = 4x - 3
Slope (m) of 4x - y = 3, or y = 4x - 3, is 4.
Slope-intercept/Standard form of a linear equation: y = mx + b.
Equation requested is parallel to the given equation, 4x - y = 3, or y = 4x - 3, so its slope
(m) is also 4. The point the requested equation passes through, (0, 5) is the y-intercept of
the requested equation, or b in the slope-intercept/standard form of a a linear equation.
Therefore, requested equation is: y = 4x + 5.
