ANSWER

[tex]y = 5x + 6[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The equation of the given line is

[tex]y=5x-7[/tex]

This line is in the slope -intercept form,

[tex]y = mx + c[/tex]

where

[tex]m = 5[/tex]

is the slope.

The line which is parallel to this line and passes through (1,11) also has slope

[tex]m = 5[/tex]

Let the equation of this line be

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

This implies

[tex]y = 5x + b[/tex]

We substitute x=1 and y=11 to get

[tex]11 = 5(1) + b[/tex]

[tex]b = 11 - 5 = 6[/tex]

The required equation is

[tex]y = 5x + 6[/tex]
