Question 121869: Write the equation of the line L satisfying the given geometric conditions.

L has y-intercept (0,-3)and is parallel to the line with equation
y=2/3x+1
please show work and equation

Answer by checkley71(8403)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Y=2X/3+1
A PARALLEL LINE ALSO HAS A SLOPE=2/3
USING THE X,Y VALUES & THE SLOPE WE SOLVE FOR THE Y INTERCEPT(b):
-3=2/3*0+b
b=-3 SO THE EQUATION IS:
Y=2X/3-3
