Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{2}x-7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallel lines have the same slope.

We have:

y = 1/2x + 5.

Therefore, the line has the equation:

y = 1/2x + b

Put the coordinates of the point (4, -5) to the equation:

-5 = (1/2)(4) + b

-5 = 2 + b                subtract 2 from both sides

-5 - 2 = 2 - 2 + b

-7 = b → b = -7

Finally we have:

y = 1/2x - 7

Answer:

Y= 1/2x -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form of equation is Y= mx +c

Where (x,y) is (4,-5)

Slope m will be ½

Hence, now equation  will be Y= mx +c

-5 = ½(4) +c

-5= 2 +c

-5-2=c

c = -7

Y= 1/2x -7
