Answer:
y = - [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] x + 5
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 = - [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex]
• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then
y = - [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation
to find c substitute (4, - 2 ) into the partial equation
- 2 = - 7 + c ⇒ c = - 2 + 7 = 5
y = - [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] x + 5 ← equation of line
