Answer:

[tex]y + 2 = \frac{1}{2}(x+3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. So y = 1/2x - 7 has a slope of m = 1/2 and so will its parallel line.

Substitute m = 1/2 and (-3,-2) into the point slope form of the line.

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y - -2 = \frac{1}{2}(x --3)\\y + 2 = \frac{1}{2}(x+3)\\[/tex]
