Answer:
y = x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same gradient in this case 1 is the gradient.
Using the point (8,1) we can form our own equation.
1 will be y, 1 will be m, 8 will be x
All we have to do is find C in order to form the equation y=mx+c
1 = 1(8) + c
1 = 8 + c
C = - 7
Therefore;
y = x - 7
