Answer:

y = -7x + 57

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is parallel, it will have the same slope. So, this line will also have a slope of -7.

Use y = mx + b, plug in the slope and given point, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

-6 = -7(9) + b

-6 = -63 + b

57 = b

Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b:

y = mx + b

y = -7x + 57

So, the equation is y = -7x + 57
