Answer:
[tex]y=0.5x-5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the equation is parallel, this means that the slope remains the same which is 0.5.
The remaining thing to do is to find b or y-intercept. To do that, the point (6,-2) and the slope of 0.5 will be used.
[tex]-2=0.5(6)+b[/tex]
When solving for b, it will equal to -5.
Therefore the new equation that is parallel is [tex]y=0.5x-5[/tex]
