Answer:

y=3x+6

Explanation:

in a line graph, y=mx+c

m refers to gradient, c refers to y-intercept.

since lines are parallel, both lines have the same gradient.

the line intersects (1,9)

x=1,y=9

9=3(1)+c

c=6

so y=3x+6

Answer:

y = 3x+6

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope

y = 3x+2 is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

So the slope is 3

Y = 3x+2

Using the point given substitute into the equation and solve for b

9 = 3(1)+b

9 =3+b

9-3 =b

6=b

y = 3x+6
