Answer:
y = -1/5x + 29/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the slope and leave the y-intercept alone
Now use the point to find a new y-intercept for the parallel line
y = -1/5x + b
4 = -1/5(9) + b
4 = -9/5 + b
b = 4 - (-9/5)
b = 29/5
The equation parallel to y = -1/5x + 23/5 going through the point (9, 4) is y = -1/5x + 29/5
