Question

An equation of a line through (-1, 1) which is parallel to the line y = 5x + 1 has slope:

and y-intercept at:

Answer 1

The slope is 5 and the y-intercept is at (0, 6)

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the equation is 5. The equation is y = 5x + 6, so the y-intercept is 6.
