Answer:

y = -½x + 4

Explanation:

1 = -½[6] + b

-3

4 = b

2y + x = 4 →2y = -x + 4 >> y = -½x + 2 [parallel to the above equation]

Parallel lines have SIMILAR RATE OF CHANGES [SLOPES].

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

**I have a video that explains how to find the y-intercept, Perpendicular Equations, and Parallel Equations. I encourage you to watch the video to gain alot more knowledge from it, so you can better understand the concept. It is the second longest.
