Answer:

y = 34x - 139 (y = 34x + 2)

y =
(3)/(4)x - 6 (y = 3/4x +2)

Explanation:

(I'm not sure if the two equations were the same or not, but I provided the answers just in case.) Parallel lines are two lines that have the same plane and slope but never intersect. To find the equation, use the formula y -
y_(1) = m (x -
x_(1))
