Hello, thank you for taking the time to post your question!
The underlying equation that you want to use here is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation: y=mx+b
For this set of values, we have a line that is parallel to y=7/4x+1 and passes through the point (−4,−4).
Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of your new line is m=7/4.
Next, you can use the point-slope form to find the equation.
y−y1=m(x−x1)
y−(−4)=7/4(x−(−4))
y+4=7/4(x+4)
y+4=7/4x+7
y=7/4x+7−4
y=7/4x+3
I hope that helps you get moving in a better direction on this type of question! Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions beyond that :)
