write the equationi slope intercept form for the line that passes through thegiven point and its parellel to the graph of the given equation
(-1,-2),y=3x+5
-----
Slope of given equation:: 3
--
Slope of any parallel line:: 3
----
Form:: y = mx + b
Substitute for x,y, and m ; solve for "b".
------------------
-2 = 3*-1 + b
b = -2 +3 = 1
-----
Equation:: y = 3x + 1
