Hi,

using the general slope-intercept form for an equation of a line

y= mx + b where m is the slope and b the y intercept

line parallel to the line x+9y= 2

x+9y = 2

y = -x/9 + 2/9  New line will have slope (-1/9)

y = (-1/9)x + b  Using Pt(7,9) to solve for b

9 = (-1/9)*7 + b

81/9 + 7/9 = b

88/9 = b

y = (-1/9)*7 + 88/9
