Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 3x - y = -3 and passes through the point (4, -2).

y = -one thirdx - 6

y = -one thirdx - 14

y = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 14

Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 3x - y = -3 and passes through the point (4, -2). 

 y = -one thirdx - 6 

 y = -one thirdx - 14 

 y = 3x - 6 

 y = 3x - 14

(1) Find the slope of the given line.
(2) Substitute that slope and the coordinates of the given point into the point-slope formula for the equation of a straight line:  y-y0 = m(x-x0).
(3) Solve the resulting equation for y.
