find an equation of the line satisfying the given conditions.
parallel to the line 2x+y=3 and through (-2,3)
The equation of any line parallel to this one would have the same slope as this one. We need to find out what that is by putting this equation into slope intercept form:, m=slope and b=y-intercept.


the slope, m=-2
Now that we have a slope and a point, we can use the point slope formula to find the equation of the line:
m=-2 and (x1,y1)=(-2,3)
