Answer:

2y=11 - 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that is parallel shares the same gradient thus

2y= -5x - 8

y = -5/2x- 4

gradient m = -5/2

substitute value of m and the co-ordinates into a new linear equation

y = mx + c

-9 = (-5/2)(8) + c

c = 20-9 = 11

thus y = -5/2x + 11

2y=11 - 5x
