Answer:

y = - 1/7x - 7

Explanation:

Given equation ,

=> y = -1/7 - 2

On comparing to slope intercept form of the line we get the slope as -1/7

Now as we know that the slope of two parallel lines are same . So the slope of parallel line will be -1/7 .

Using point slope form ,

=> y - 6 = -1/7( x -7)

=> y -6 = -1/7x +1

=> y -7 = -1/7x

=> y = -1/7x -7
