Answer:

Explanation:

You keep the same slope since it's supposed to be parallel. But first you need to write it in slope intercept form. So the y can't have a number in front of it, so you must divided everything after the equal sign by the 3. So the equation becomes y=2/3x−1. Now you plug in the points to find a parallel equation using point slope form y−(4)=(23)(x−(−3)). Then you solve that and you get y=2/3x+6.
