Answer:
y= 2x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line is usually written in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.
Parallel lines have the same gradient. Hence m=2.
Subst. m=2 into the equation:
y=2x +c
Now substitute a coordinate.
When x= -2, y=1,
1= 2(-2) +c
1= -4 +c
c= 1 +4
c=5
Thus, the equation of the line is y= 2x +5.
