Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that is parallel to y= 2/5x-2 and passes through the point (-20,-7). Show your work (PLEASE ANSWER ASAP)

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = 2/5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel, their slopes are equal

so the slope would be 2/5

if y = -7, x = -20, m = 2/5

slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

-7 = 2/5(-20) + b

-7 = -8 + b

b = 1

then y = 2/5x + 1
