\"The line the same y-intercept as the line whose equation 2y=6x+8 and
\n" ); document.write( " is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x+4y=20.\"
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "Change the equation to the slope intercept form (y = mx + b)
\n" ); document.write( "2y = 6x + 8
\n" ); document.write( "Divide equation by 2
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3x + 4
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore
\n" ); document.write( "The line as a y intercept of 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Parallel lines have the same slope;
\n" ); document.write( "Find the slope by putting in the equation in the point/intercept form
\n" ); document.write( "4x + 4y = 20
\n" ); document.write( "4y = -4x + 20
\n" ); document.write( "Divide equation by 4, results
\n" ); document.write( "y = -1x + 5
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Now we know the slope (-1) and the y intercept (+4) if the line
\n" ); document.write( "y = -1x + 4
\n" ); document.write( "or just
\n" ); document.write( "y = -x + 4 is \"the line\"
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
