Answer:

To find an equation that is parallel, the slopes must be equal. Find the parallel line using the point-slope formula.

Use the slope  

−

1

2

and a given point  

(

0

,

0

)

to substitute for  

x

1

and  

y

1

in the point-slope form  

y

−

y

1

=

m

(

x

−

x

1

)

, which is derived from the slope equation  

m

=

y
