3 x + -1 y = -5
\n" ); document.write( "Find the slope of this line
\n" ); document.write( "make y the subject
\n" ); document.write( "-1 y = -3 x + -5
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by -1
\n" ); document.write( " y = 3 x + 5
\n" ); document.write( "Compare this equation with y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "slope m = 3
\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 3
\n" ); document.write( "m= 3 ,point ( -1 , 0 )
\n" ); document.write( "Find b by plugging the values of m & the point in
\n" ); document.write( "y=mx+b
\n" ); document.write( "0 = -3.00 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b= 3
\n" ); document.write( "m= 3
\n" ); document.write( "Plug value of the slope and b in y = mx +b
\n" ); document.write( "The required equation is y = 3 x + 3
\n" ); document.write( " y = 3 x + 3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x-y=-3
