ANSWER

[tex]y + 5 = - \frac{2}{3} (x - 4)[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given line has equation:

[tex]y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 8[/tex]

The slope of this line is;

[tex]m=-\frac{2}{3} [/tex]

The line that is parallel to this line also has the same slope.

If the line passes through (4,-5), then the point-slope form is given by;

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

We substitute the slope and the point to get,

[tex]y + 5 = - \frac{2}{3} (x - 4)[/tex]
