Write the equation of the line parallel to y=6 that passes through the point (2, -3). Write your answer in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

y=6 is a horizontal line with a constant value of y-coordinate equal to 6 regardless of the value of x.

If the line is parallel to line y = 6 then it is also a horizontal line with a constant y coordinate regardless of the value of x.

Since the line goes through (2,3), the equation of that line must be y = 3.
