Solve the given equation for 
in terms of everything else, then determine the slope of the given line by inspection of the coefficient on 
. This will also be the slope of the required line because parallel lines have identical slopes. Then use the point-slope form of an equation of a line:
 )
where )
are the coordinates of the given point and 
is the given/calculated slope.
All that is left is to put the result into slope-intercept form. Solve the equation for in terms of everything else. The result will be something that looks like 
, though 
may be zero and therefore not present.

What is the equation of the line described below
written in slope-intercept form?
the line passing through point (0, 0) and parallel to the line whose equation is 3x + 2y - 6 = 0
------
Solve the given equation for "y":
y = (-3/2)x + 3
------
slope = -3/2
----------------------------
Equation of the line with the same slope and passing thru (0,0):
y = (-3/2)x
