Point-Slope Equation Form might be best choice. Not absolutely necessary.
, the same slope you want for your parallel line.
Generally, formula for slope:
YOUR specific point that your line contains is (0,9)---------- On another thought, *Slope-Intercept form would be best choice!
* Reason I changed the choice of equation form is because the point to be on the sought line is its y-intercept.
-
m is the slope.
b is the y intercept also expressible as (0,b).
