Answer:


y=(4)/(3)x-1.75

Explanation:

If the slope of a line is 4/3,

and we wanna find the equation of a line that is parallel to it and crosses through (5,5).

So we already have the slope because the slope of 2 parallel lines are the same.

y = 4/3x

Look at the image below↓

So now we just need to find the y-intercept.

After some numbers we got,


y=(4)/(3)x-1.75

Look at the other image below↓

Thus,

the equation of the parallel line is
y=(4)/(3)x-1.75.

Hope this helps :)
