Answer 1

Answer:  -2x + 5y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines must be parallel, the slopes must be the same, so keep the coefficients of x and y

Substitute the values of x and y from the given coordinate  (6,4) to find the new constant, b, the y-intercept.

-2x + 5y = b

-2(6) + 5(4) = b

-12 + 20 = b

8 = b

Rewrite the original equation substituting the new b for the original -15

-2x + 5y = 8
