Answer:

The equation is y = 4x + 19

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x - 6    Using y = mx + b, the slope = 4.  

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Now substitute the slope = 4 and the given ordered pair (-5, -1) into the slope-intercept form and solve for b.

y = mx + b

-1 = 4(-5) + b

-1 = -20 + b

19 = b

Now substitute into y = mx + b   m = 4 and b = 19

The equation is y = 4x + 19
