Explanation:
a parallel line must have the same slope (otherwise it cannot be parallel).
a slope-intercept form looks like
y = ax + b
"a" (the factor of x) is always the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y-value when x = 0).
so, we know from y = -3x + 5 that the slope of the new line is also -3.
to get b we use the coordinates of the given point :
-5 = -3×-8 + b = 24 + b
-29 = b
that means the line equation is
y = -3x - 29
