Answer:

y= 3x-17

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding a parallel equation to y=mx+b, mx will always stay the same. So we have to find b.

In order to do this you plug the parallel lines passing point into the equation.

-5(y) goes into the y's spot. 4(x) goes into the x's spot.

-5 = 3 x 4 + b

-5 = 12 + b

-5 - 12 = 12 - 12 + b

-17 = b

y=3x-17

The ratio of the two shorter legs of the top triangle is

$\dfrac{5}{4} = 1.25$

The bottom triangle has the following ratio:

$\dfrac{7.5}{6} = 1.25$

Since their ratios are the same, this means that the two triangles are similar.
