You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Y=5/2X+6 (RED LINE)HAS A SLOPE=5/2 SO THE PARALLEL LINE WILL ALSO HAVE A SLOPE=5/2
\n" ); document.write( "1=2*5/2+b
\n" ); document.write( "1=5+b
\n" ); document.write( "b=1-5
\n" ); document.write( "b=-4 IS THE Y INTERCEPT THUS THE EQUATION IS:
\n" ); document.write( "Y=5/2X-4 (GREEN LINE)
