Answer:

y=-3x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. Since the original line has a slope of -3, the line that is parallel to it also has a slope of -3.

1. Use point-slope: y-y1=m(x-x1). M represents slope and x1 and y1 represent the x and y values of the ordered pair.

y-5=-3(x+2)

2. Simplify

First, distribute -3 to x and +2

Rewrite the equation as y-5=-3x-6

Add 5 to both sides

y=-3x-1
