Use the equation: y = 5x - 4 Write an equation in any form) of a line that passes through the point (-1,7) and is parallel to the original line. ​

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = 5x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Plug in all numbers into your equation: y - 7 = 5(x - -1)

Minus with a minus becomes a positive: y - 7 = 5(x + 1)

Distribute:                    y - 7 = 5x + 5

Add 7 to both sides:      +7          +7

Answer: y = 5x + 12
