Answer:

y = 3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This new line is parallel to y = 3x - 5 and thus has the same slope (3).

Adapting the point-slope formula y = mx + b to this situation, we use m  = 3 and substitute 0 for x and 1 for y:

1 = 3(0) + b

Therefore, b = 1, and the desired equation is

y = 3x + 1
