Answer:

y=1/2x-7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is parallel, we know that the slope is the same as the equation given: 1/2. So you just plug in the coordinates for x and y. So it would be -2=1/2(3)+b because we don't know what the intercept is for this line. If you simplify the equation you'll get -2=1.5+b. Then, you must isolate B, so you would get -3.5=b or -7/2.
