To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. If both lines are parallel, they have the same slope (
)
2. You have that the equation of the line is:

Where
is the slope and
is the y-intercept.
3. You know that the other line must pass through the point (
). So, you can solve for
to calculate its value, as following:

4. Therefore, the equation of the line that is parallel to
is

The answer is:
