Compare the equation
with Slope-intercept form line equation
.
Slope of the given line is
.
Since the slopes of parallel lines are same.
\The slope of the parallel line is 
Find the y-intercept value by replacing the slope with
and (x, y) with ordered pair (4, 6)
(Substitute
for m)
(Substitute 4, 6 for x and y)
(Multiply:
