Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The point slope form of a straight line is expressed as
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Where
m represents slope of the line
y1 represents the initial value of y
x1 represents the initial value of x
If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. From the equation of the given line, slope = 1/2
Therefore,
m = 1/2
x1 = - 3
y1 = - 2
Substituting into the point slope equation, it becomes
y - - 2 = 1/2(x - - 3)
y + 2 = 1/2(x + 3)
The equation is
y + 2 = 1/2(x + 3)
