Answer: y=-4x-31

Explanation:

To find a ling that is parallel to the given line and passes through the given point, we need to use the given point. We know that the slope MUST stay the same because parallel lines NEVER touch. All we have to do is plug in the point and find the y-intercept.

-7=-4(-6)+b [multiply]

-7=24+b [subtract both sides by 24]

b=-31

Now, we know that y=-4x-31 is the equation.
