The slope of the line we seek must me the same as the slope of the given line because THE LINES ARE PARALLEL.

The two lines never meet.

The slope of the given line is -7.

See it?

Plug -7 and the given point into the point-slope formula.

y - (-6) = -7(x - 9)

Solve for y.

y + 6 = -7x + 63

y = -7x + 63 - 6

y = -7x + 57
