Answer:

y = x - 1

Explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same slope. The slope of the given equation is 1. This means that the new equation will also have a slope of 1.

Use the point-slope form to find the equation with the given point and slope.

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 2 = 1(x - 3)

y - 2 = x - 3

(y - 2) + 2 = (x - 3) + 2

y = x - 1
