Answer:

y=3x+25

Explanation:

we need start by making slope intercept form

lets move the 12x after moving it we get

-4y=-12x+4 we need to remove the - 4 from the y so we need to divide the whole equation by - 4

we get y=3x-1

now we can create an equation to get the parallel line

y+2=3(x+9) now distribute

y+2=3x+27 and subtract the two

y=3x+25
