Rewriting the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form,

8x-7y=87\\\\-7y=-8x+87\\\\7y=8x-87\\\\y=\frac{8}{7}x-\frac{87}{7}

The slope of the given line is thus 8/7, and since parallel lines have the same slope, the slope of the line we want to find is also 8/7.

Substituting into point-slope form,

y+17=\frac{8}{7}(x-3)\\\\y+17=\frac{8}{7}x-\frac{24}[7}\\\\\boxed{y=\frac{8}{7}x-\frac{143}{7}}

Using proportions, it is found that $55.7 billion was donated to educational organizations.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

Of the $371 billion donated in total, 15% went to educational organizations, hence the amount is given by:

A = 0.15 x 371 = $55.7 billion.

Hence $55.7 billion was donated to educational organizations.
