An equation with a difference of 6 would be 12-6=6

Actually Welcome to the concept of Parallel lines.
We must first understand that, Parallel Lines always have a same Slope, hence the 'm' value in y=mx+c equation will same, here it is '1/2' in the above equation,
so the points here are (-6,-17)
==>
(y-(-17)) = m(x-(-6))
==>
here m = 1/2 ,hence
y+17 = 1/2(x+6)
==> y+17 = 1/2(x) + 3
==> y = 1/2(x) + 3 - 17
==> y = 1/2(x) - 14
hence the Option 4.) is the correct answer!!
The answer is 7 because 2 times 6 equals 12 + 26 - 12 equals 14 + 14 divided by 2 equals 7 this is how I see you it out the answer again the answer is seven feet feet
