PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!! ASAP!!!!! I REWARD BRAINLIEST!!!! HAVE CLASS IN 30 MINUTES!1111

KiRa [710]

Answer:

$y = \dfrac{1}{3}x + 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is in slope-intercept form,

y = mx + b,

where m is the slope.

The slope of the given line is 1/3, so m = 1/3.

Parallel lines have equal slopes, so the slope of the parallel line is also 1/3.

y = 1/3 x + b

Now we can find the equation of the parallel line through point (6, 3) by using the given point's coordinates for x and y and solving for b.

3 = (1/3)(6) + b

3 = 2 + b

b = 1

Equation: $y = \dfrac{1}{3}x + 1$
