Step 1 - solve the equation for y.

step 2 - parallel means same slope. SO find the slope of the equation from step 1 and that is the slope you want. slope = 3.
step 3 - using y= mx+ b, substitute known information. We get

step 4 - write the equation:

y=3x+6 is in slope intercept form
standard form is ax+by=c
3x-y=-6
