You can solve this with the point-slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1). The line is parallel; both slopes are equivalent.
First we have to rewrite the original equation, which is rewritten into y=5x+2 by subtracting -5x on both sides.
Next, plug in the coordinates we have into the point-slope formula (-2, 1), along with the slope from the original equation (5). To check, we can plug the coordinates back into the equation.
20 because 1 equals 20 I know this because 80 divided by 4 equals 20 and 100 divided by 5 equals 20 I could go on down to seven but by now you get my point.
