Answer:
The answer to your question is 5x + 6y - 42 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
y-intercept = 7
parallel to -5x - 6y = 1
Process
1.- Find the slope
- 6y = 5x + 1
y = -5/6 x - 1/6
As the lines are parallels, the slope is the same in both lines
m = -5/6
2.- Find the equation of the new line
If the line has a y-intercept of 7, it means that the point is (0, 7)
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Substitution
y - 7 = -5/6 (x - 0)
Simplification
y - 7 = -5/6x
Equal to zero
5/6x + y - 7 = 0
Multiply by 6
5x + 6y - 42 = 0 This is the equation of the line
Answer:
6y = -5x + 42
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x - 6y = 1
-6y = 5x + 1---------------------(i)
y = -5x/6 - 1/6
comparing the equation above with y = mx + c, we have;
m = -5/6
for condition of parallelism
the gradient of the new line = -5/6
Using the formula
y = mx + c
y = -5x/6 + 7
6y = -5x + 42
