2x3y=2

Explanation:

First, we need to find the slope of the line that it is parallel to, as this line will have the same slope.
2x3y=2
3y=2x2
y=23x23
Therefore, m=23
We can use point-slope form at first before we convert it to standard form.
yy1=m(xx1)
y+2=23(x2)
y+2=23x+43
3y+6=2x+4 multiply by 3 to get rid of fractions
2x3y=2
