ANSWER

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation

If the lines are parallel it means that they have the same slope. In this case, x = 7 is a vertical line at x = 7. Therefore, the line we're looking for is also a vertical line. Since it is said that it passes through point (-10, 6), this line must be constat at x = -10.

The equation is x = -10
