y = -x +3
If two lines are parallel they
have the same gradient.
m1 = m2
Using y - b = m(x - a)
y + 2 = -1(x + 2)
y + 2 = -x - 2
y = -x - 2 - 2
y = -x - 4

Obtain slope of line represented by the given equation by inspection of the coefficient on . Then use the point-slope form with the aforementioned slope and the given point to write the desired equation.

where are the coordinates of the given point and is the given slope.
