You can put this solution on YOUR website!
slope of M is change in y/change in x
\n" ); document.write( "=-4/-4=1
\n" ); document.write( "Slope of L is the same, 1, since it is parallel.
\n" ); document.write( "point slope formula for L
\n" ); document.write( "y-y1=1(x-x1)
\n" ); document.write( "y-7=1(x-1)
\n" ); document.write( "y-7=x-1
\n" ); document.write( "y=x+6\r
