Answer :

Answer:

y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 3x - 18 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (3, 2) into the partial equation

2 = 9 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 9 = - 7

y = 3x - 7 ← equation of parallel line
