Answer:

3x - 2 = 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x + 5 = 2y into this form by dividing all terms by 2

[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] = y ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Parallel lines have equal slopes and c = - 1, thus

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 1 ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 2

2y = 3x - 2 ← equation of line
