Thread: parametric equation of line

A line L: 2x -3y = 1 is given.
Show that the coordinates (x,y) of any point on the line L can be written as

x = 2 + 3k and y = 1 + 3k


I don't know how to show it.
Is that just by putting x = 2 + 3k and y = 1 + 3k into the equation of L?

Hello, ling_c_0202!

There must be a typo . . .
