What equation represents a line parallel to y+3/5x-9?

The equation for a line parallel to y = (3/5)x – 9 is y = (3/5)x + (any other y intercept but – 9) The whole idea of parallel lines is that they all have the same slope as each other. The only difference between them is that they cross the y axis at all different points. So every single line parallel to y = ( 3/5 )x – 9 is going to have the exact same slope. That is why they are “parallel.” But they all will have different values at b.
