Answer:

3x -2y = -14

Explanation:

The parallel line will have a new constant that can be found by substituting the given point for x and y.

-3x +2y = -3(0) +2(7) = 14

An equation for the parallel line is ...

-3x +2y = 14

__

In standard form, the leading coefficient is positive, so the standard form equation is ...

3x -2y = -14
