Slope intercept form is this: y - y1 = m(x - x1) We are given the point of (5, -4) and the equation y = 2x + 3 Our needed equation is parallel to the give equation, meaning it has the same slope which is 2 Plug in the slope which is 2x and the x1 and y1 values given.
y - (-4) = 2(x - 5)
Then, simplify the equation to receive our answer. y + 4 = 2x -10 y = 2x - 14
