A given line has the equation 10x + 2y = −2.

What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (0, 12)?

If it is parallel, it will contain the same slope. Slope in this case is -5.

Your parallel line would be: y = -5x + 12
Hope this helps!
