X=20

If they're parallel the other number in the same spot as 5x+15 equals that, so 5x+15=115 because if they are parallel they're the same if same spot and same line going through them.

115-15 = 100
5x=100
Divide by 5 both sides
X=20

If x=20 then these lines would be parallel

Find the slope between the two points given. Then, use the slope and the first point to write the equation of the line in Point-

M(slope)= -5/4 point-slope(y-y1=m(x-x1)) so it would be y-5= -5/4(x+4)
