Question

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point.

y = mc012-1.jpgx + 7; (3, 11)

Answer 1

y=2x+7 ; (3,110

Answer 2

If it passes through (3,11), and its parallel to that line, then it has to have the SAME slope as the original equation, but a different intercept. We can find that intercept with the point you give us.
Using the equation form:
Y-y1= m(x-x1) we can solve for
Y-11=2(x-3) (Some teachers will take this as an answer, but others might want point slope)
Y=2x -6 + 11
Y=2x + 5
