the slope-intercept equation of the function is:

where is a slope and is -intercept

The graph of f passes through (, )



since our line is parallel to the line that passes through (, ) and (, ), and we know parallel lines have same slope
, use given points of parallel line to find a slope


going back to
....substitute slope




now we have a slope and -intercept, so our line is:
