Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = -3x + 12 and passes through the point (-1, 6).

Parallel lines have same slope so the slope is -3 then plug in the point for x and y.  So you get 6 = -3 times -1 plus b.  6 = 3 + b then solve for b and you get 3 so your answer is y = -3x + 3

Abit confused about what you mean, but i think you might be referring to slope intercept form: y = mx + bin that case b, or the y intercept is already given.(0,-1)find the slope by using the formulay2 - y1/x2 - x1the final slope will be 4/2, equivalent to 2.now your equation should look like thisy = 4/2x -1sorry if this didn’t you out!
