The line equation in slope-intercept form is , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
First find the slope (m).
\The slope formula is .
(Replace
with 3, 3, 0 and 6)
(Subtract:
)
(Additive identity property:
)
The slope of .
Parallel line has same slope.
\So, slope of the new line = .
Next find the y-intercept (b).
\ (Substitute
for m)
(Substitute –3,
for x, y)
(Product of two same signs is positive)
Apply subtraction property of equality: If a = b than a – c = b – c.
\ (Subtract 3 from each side)
\
Apply commutative property of addition: a + b = b + a.
\ \ (Apply Additive inverse property:
)
(Subtract:
)
Substitute for m and
for b in the Slope-intercept form equation.
.
The equation in slope-intercept form is .
