The equation in slope-intercept form is y = 4x + 1

Given,

Points (x, y) = (-1, 5)

Parallel to y = 4x - 5

Now,

Recall that a parallel line to the one given has to have the same slope. The slope of the line given is "4" (the coefficient that accompanies "x").

Therefore the equation of a parallel line has to be of the form:

y = 4x - b

5 = 4(-1) - b

5 = -4 - b

b = -4 - (-5)

b = -4 + 5

b = 1

So the equation now becomes:

y = 4x + 1
