What is the equation of a line parallel to y = 7x - 8 that passes through (5,-2)?

The equation of a line parallel to y = 7x - 8 that passes through (5,-2):

:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of the line :

y = 7x - 8

Slope intercept form =  y = mx + c

Where = m = Slope of the line

c = intercept on y axis

On comparing the given equation with slope intercept form , we get

m = 7, c = -8

For equation of line which parallel to the line formed by given equation will have same slope because parallel lines have same value of slope.

m' = m= 7

Equation of the line passing from point (5,-2) can be determined by the help of point slop form;

Slope of the parallel line = m' =7

The equation of a line parallel to y = 7x - 8 that passes through (5,-2):
