Through: (-1, 0), parallel to y = 3x
evablogger [386]

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Since it is parallel to the equation y = 3x it means that the equation that goes through point (-1, 0) has the same slope (3x)

To find the b plug the x and y of point (-1, 0) into the equation: y = 3x + b then solve for b

0 = 3(-1) + b

0 = -3 + b

0 + 3 = (-3 + 3) + b

3 = b

so...

y = 3x + b

Hope this helped and made sense!
