Answer:
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

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
L₁ is y = 5x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
L₂ is 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 ( subtract - 10x + 3 from both sides )
2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )
y = 5x - ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Since L₁ and L₂ have equal slopes then they are parallel lines
