Hello!

First you have to find what y is when x is -3

y = 3(-3) - 4

Multiply

y = -9 - 4

Subtract

y = -13

The line goes through point (-3, -13)

The line we are making goes through point (-3, 2)

Count how far up the line we are making is

-13 + 15 = 2

The line we are making is 15 units up

We add 15 to the y-intercept part of the original equation

y = ? - 4 + 15

y = ? + 11

Since they are parallel the slope is the same

The answer is y = 3x + 11

Hope this helps!
