Write an equation of the line that is parallel to y=-4x+8 and passes through the point (5,1)

The equation is y = -4x + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the slope of the line. In this case it is already solved for y, so we just look for the coefficient of x (-4)

With the slope of -4, we now can plug the slope and point into point-slope form and get the final equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = -4(x - 5)

y - 1 = -4x + 20

y = -4x + 21
