Answer:


\displaystyle y = 2x + 7

Explanation:

Use the Slope-Intercept Formula instead of the Point-Slope Formula because it is MUCH, MUCH faster, plus parallel equations have SIMILAR RATE OF CHANGES [SLOPES ], so
\displaystyle 2 remains as is:


\displaystyle y =mx + b \\ \\ 3 = 2[-2] + b → 3 = -4 + b; 7 = b \\ \\ \boxed{y = 2x + 7}

I am joyous to assist you at any time.
