Question 78577: How do I 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.

y=2/3x+1 has a slope (m) of 2/3. thus a parallel line has the same slope and given a y intercept of (0,-3)
the equation is
y=2/3x-3
graphing these two lines follow.
y=2/3x+1 is the (red line) & y=2/3x-3 is the (green line).
