Answer

y=-$\frac{3}{2}$x-6

Work Step by Step

3x+2y=5 2y=-3x+5 y=$\frac{-3x+5}{2}$ y=$\frac{-3x}{2}$+$\frac{5}{2}$ y=-$\frac{3}{2}$x+$\frac{5}{2}$, slope is -$\frac{3}{2}$ line is parallel, slope is -$\frac{3}{2}$ through (-2;-3) y=mx+b -3=-$\frac{3}{2}$(-2)+b -3=3+b b=-6 y=mx+b y=-$\frac{3}{2}$x-6
