Write an equation of a line that passes through (-6, 1), parallel to y = 2x - 6.

y = - 1/2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's parallel, that means that the slope is the opposite of the one in the given equation, meaning that 2 would be flipped and turned negative into - 1/2.

Then, fill in the x and y values to get the y-intercept.

1 = - 1/2 (-6) + b

1 = 3 + b

-2 = b

So your answer is y = - 1/2x - 2
