Answer:
y = - 2x - 13
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 = - 2x - 5 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 2
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 4, - 5) into the partial equation
- 5 = 8 + c ⇒ c = - 5 - 8 = - 13
y = - 2x - 13 ← equation of parallel line
