Slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b.
Where m= slope and b= y-intercept.
First step is to compare the given equation y=35x+8 with the above equation to get the value of m.
After comparing the two equations we will get m=35.
Slope of paralle lines always equal which means slope of a line which is parallel to the above line will also be 35.
Now the line is passing through (-10,4).
Point slope form of a line is :
Next step is to plug in m=35, x1=-10 and y1=4 in the above equation. So,
y-4=35(x-(-10)
y-4=35(x+10)
y-4=35x+350
y=35x+350+4
y=35x+354.
So, the equation of the line is y=35x+354.
