Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the new line is 1/2.
The line passes through (0,4), and this gives the y-intercept, which would equal 4.
The equation now would be: y = 1/2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount invested at 14%. Then 5000-x is the amount invested at 9%. The interest earned is ...
(14%)x +(9%)(5000 -x) = 460
0.05x +450 = 460 . . . . . . . . . . simplify
0.05x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 450
x = 200 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.05
5000-x = 5000-200 = 4800
$200 was invested at 14%; $4800 was invested at 9%.
