The line we are searching for has the same slope because both lines are parallel.
The given equation y = 2x + 8 has a slope of 2.
We need the point-slope formula, the slope 2 andbthe given point.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = 2(x -(-3))
y - 2 = 2(x + 3)
y - 2 = 2x + 6
We now solve for y.
y = 2x + 6 + 2
The equation we want is y = 2x + 8.
