L passes through point (0,-4) and is parallel with the line 3x - y = 6.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Put the given equation in the slope-intercept form:
\n" ); document.write( "3x - y = 6
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3x -6
\n" ); document.write( "slope = 3
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Any line parallel to the given line has slope = 3.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "For of the equation you want is y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "m = 3 and y = -4 when x = 0 ; solve for \"b\":
\n" ); document.write( "-4 = 3*0 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = -4
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATION:
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3x - 4
\n" ); document.write( "b1 is 3
\n" ); document.write( "b0 is -4
\n" ); document.write( "==============
