Parallel lines have the same slope. If the slope of the given equation is -6, then it means that the slope of the other line must also be -6.

Since we're also given the y-intercept value of b = 6, then we can establish the following linear equation of the line parallel to y = -6x + 2 as:


y = -6x + 6
