Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the line will also have a slope of 2

Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b to solve for b:

y = mx + b

3 = 2(5) + b

3 = 10 + b

-7 = b

Then, plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b

y = 2x - 7 is the equation of the line
