Question 917974

y = 2x + 3 is of the form 
 
y = mx + b  where m = slope and b is the y intercept


when we want a line that is parallel, we keep the same slope and find a new 
y intercept b

y= 2x + b   (-2,-4)

we know x and y,  solve for b

-4 = 2(-2) + b

-4 = -4 + b

b = 0

the new equation parallel to y=2x + 3 is y=2x +0 or y= 2x
