Answer:

y-1=3/2(x+3)

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m of the given line using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m=2+4/2+2=6/4=3/2

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

The equation of a line in point-slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = 3/2 and (a, b) = (- 3, 1), thus

y - 1 = 3/2 (x - (- 3)), that is

y - 1 = 3/2 (x + 3) ← equation in point- slope form
