We can see that the equation \"y=%282%2F3%29x%2B1\" has a slope \"m=2%2F3\" and a y-intercept \"b=1\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since parallel lines have equal slopes, this means that we know that the slope of the unknown parallel line is \"m=2%2F3\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now let's use the point slope formula to find the equation of the parallel line by plugging in the slope \"m=2%2F3\" and the coordinates of the given point .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y-y%5B1%5D=m%28x-x%5B1%5D%29\" Start with the point slope formula\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y--3=%282%2F3%29%28x-0%29\" Plug in \"m=2%2F3\", \"x%5B1%5D=0\", and \"y%5B1%5D=-3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B3=%282%2F3%29%28x-0%29\" Rewrite \"y--3\" as \"y%2B3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B3=%282%2F3%29x%2B%282%2F3%29%28-0%29\" Distribute\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B3=%282%2F3%29x%2B0\" Multiply\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%282%2F3%29x%2B0-3\" Subtract 3 from both sides. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y=%282%2F3%29x-3\" Combine like terms. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the equation of the line parallel to \"y=%282%2F3%29x%2B1\" that goes through the point is \"y=%282%2F3%29x-3\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Here's a graph to visually verify our answer:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Graph of the original equation \"y=%282%2F3%29x%2B1\" (red) and the parallel line \"y=%282%2F3%29x-3\" (green) through the point .
