The given equation has a slope of [tex]\frac{-9}{7}[/tex]. Parallel lines have the same slope.
Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) ; where (x₁, y₁) is the point and "m" is slope
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - (-4) = [tex]\frac{-9}{7}[/tex](x - 2)
y + 4 = [tex]\frac{-9}{7}[/tex]x + [tex]\frac{18}{7}[/tex]
- 4 - [tex]\frac{28}{7}[/tex]
y = [tex]\frac{-9}{7}[/tex]x - [tex]\frac{10}{7}[/tex]
