Answer: y=2x-13

Explanation:

When lines are parallel to each other they have the same slope so the slope of the line we are trying to find is 2.

To find the y-intercept we can turn the equation into point-slope form using our point (6,-1) and slope (2).

Point-Slope Form: y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+1=2(x-6)

Then solve for y to find the y-intercept

y+1=2x-12

y=2x-13 is your answer in Slope-intercept form
