6 x + -3 y = -1
\n" ); document.write( "Find the slope of this line
\n" ); document.write( "make y the subject
\n" ); document.write( "-3 y = -6 x + -1
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by -3
\n" ); document.write( " y = 2 x + 0.33
\n" ); document.write( "Compare this equation with y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "slope m = 2 2
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of a line parallel to the above line will be the same
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of the required line will be 2
\n" ); document.write( "m= 2 ,point ( 1 , -6 )
\n" ); document.write( "Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "-6 = 2.00 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b= -8
\n" ); document.write( "m= 2
\n" ); document.write( "Plug value of b in y = mx +b
\n" ); document.write( "The required equation is y = 2 x -8
\n" ); document.write( " y = 2 x -8
