x-4y=20

Isolate y


\\ \sf\longmapsto x-20=4y


\\ \sf\longmapsto y=(1)/(4)x-5

  • m=1/4
  • Parallel lines have equal slope

Equation of line in point slope form


\\ \sf\longmapsto y-y_1=m(x-x_1)


\\ \sf\longmapsto y+5=1/4(x-2)


\\ \sf\longmapsto 4y+20=x-2


\\ \sf\longmapsto x-4y+22=0

Done

Y=x over 4 minus 11 over 2
Y=x/4 - 11/2
