you want a slope of -3 passing through (-2,0)
So start with the point-slope form:
y-0 = -3(x+2)
Now just rearrange things as needed
or, you know it will be of the form y = -3x+b
so plug in (-2,0) and find the value of b.
write the slope intercept form of an equation of the line that passes through (-2,0) and is parallel to the graph of y=-3x-2
