First, find the slope of the initial line;
m=(y₁-y₂)/(x₁-x₂)
m=(4-0)/(11-8)
m=4/3
If two lines are parallel, the slope is the same although the intercept can differ.
If this parallel lines passes through the point (4, 5);
y=(4/3)x+c <-- plug in coordinates to solve for c
5=(4/3)(4)+c
(15/3)=16/3+c
(15/3)-(16/3)=c
-1/3=c
Therefore, the final equation should be y=4/3x-1/3
Hope I Helped :)

Answer:
Cubic equations and the nature of their roots
Just as a quadratic equation may have two real roots, so a cubic equation has possibly three. But unlike a quadratic equation which may have no real solution, a cubic equation always has at least one real root.
