Answer:

8x - 7y = 56

Explanation:

in order for lines to be parallel they need to have the same slope, the easiest way to determine if they have the same slope is to change the equations into y = mx + b form by solving for y and seeing where m=8/7

so 8x - 7y = 56

-7y = 56 - 8x

y = 56/-7 -8x/-7

y = -8 + 8/7 x
