Answer:
y = 5x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 5x - 8 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = 5x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (2, 4) into the partial equation
4 = 10 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 10 = - 6
y = 5x - 6 ← equation of parallel line
