Answer:

y=x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the slopes have to be equal because the lines are parallel, so the slope is 1, or written as x. plug the point given, (-6,-4), and the slope, 1, into the y=mx+b equation to find the y-intercept. then solve. then put the slope and y-intercept together for the equation of line h.

y=mx+b, m=1, x=-6, y=-4

-4=(1)(-6)+b

-4=-6+b

2=b

y=x+2
