Question

What is an equation of the line that’s passes through the the point (-6,-6) and is parallel to the line x-3y=18

Answer 1

y = 1/3x -4

Explanation:

solve x-3y=18 for y

3y=x-18

divided both by 3 so y = 1/3x - 6

The parallel line has the same slope so you have to find the y-intercept of the line passing through (-6,-6)

so y = 1/3x -4
