Identifying and Writing Equations of Parallel Lines

This video tutorial explains how to identify and write equations of parallel lines by focusing on their slopes and y-intercepts. It covers the basics of linear functions in slope-intercept form and demonstrates how parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts. The tutorial includes examples of determining if lines are parallel and writing equations for parallel lines using point-slope form. It also applies these concepts to solve geometric problems involving parallel lines on a coordinate plane.
