the form:

..first we know that this line has a slope and at
since parallel lines have , we know that a line parallel to
our given line is also
so, we have ..we can use this line (means we chose ) or choose any value for and use that line (like if , then ); either way will be parallel to our given line
let's see all three of these lines on a graph:
