Answer:

y = 2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 2x + 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 2

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 3, 1) into the partial equation

1 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = 1 + 6 = 7

y = 2x + 7 ← equation of parallel line
