Answer:

y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

rearrange 2y = - 3x + 1 into this form

divide all terms by 2

y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ← in slope-intercept form

with m = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

given y-intercept = - 2 ⇒ c = - 2

y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 2 ← equation of parallel line
