equation of line that passes through -2,5 and parallel to y=-3x+7

Question

Find the equation of the line that passes through point -2,5 and is parallel to y=-3X+7

Answer 1

y = -3x + 7 has a slope of -3. Parallel lines have equal slopes.

y - y₁= m(x - x₁)

y - 5 = -3(x + 2)

y - 5 = -3x - 6

y = -3x - 1
