Answer:
y- intercept = 18
Explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - 3x + 8 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 3
• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then
y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation
to find c substitute (5, 3 ) into the partial equation
3 = - 3(5) + c = - 15 + c ( add 15 to both sides )
18 = c
y = - 3x + 18 ← equation of parallel line
with y- intercept c = 18
