Step-by-step explanation:
6x + y = 5
=> y = - 6x + 5
=> y = m1 x + c
therefore m1 = -6
slope m2 of the line parallel to the given line is also -6.
therefore equation of the line parallel to the given line 6x + y = 5, is
(y - y1) = m2 ( x - x1)
(y - 4) = -6 (x - 1)
=> y - 4 = - 6x + 6
=> 6x + y - 4 - 6 = 0
=> 6x + y - 10 = 0 Answer
