Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{y=0.6x-3.2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have

[tex]y=0.6x+3[/tex]

Parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore we have the equation:

[tex]y=0.6x+b[/tex]

The line passes through the point (-3, -5). Put the coordinates of the point to the equation and solve it for b:

[tex]-5=0.6(-3)+b[/tex]

[tex]-5=-1.8+b[/tex]            add 1.8 to both sides

[tex]-3.2=b[/tex]

Finally we have:

[tex]y=0.6x-3.2[/tex]
