Question 436782
4	x		-5	y  	=	7			
Find the slope of this line 									
									
-5	y  	=	-4	x	+	7		0.8	
Divide by 	-5								
	y  	=	0.8	x	+	-1.4			
Compare this equation with y=mx+b									
slope m =	0.8								
									
The slope of a line parallel to the above line will be the same									
									
The slope of the required line will be 			0.8						
									
m=0.8	,point(-5,7)		
Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in									
y=mx+b									
7=-4.00+b					
b=11								
m=0.8								
Plug value of  the slope  and b									
The required equation isy=0.8x+11
