Find the Slope:

The given line has the equation (2x + y = 6).

Rewrite it in slope-intercept form ((y = mx + b)) by solving for (y): [y = -2x + 6]

The slope of this line is (-2).

Parallel Line Slope:

For a parallel line, the slopes must be equal.

Therefore, the slope of our parallel line is also (-2).

Point-Slope Form:

We have the point ((2, -3)) through which the parallel line passes.

Use the point-slope formula: [y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)] where (m) is the slope and
((x_1, y_1)) is the given point.

Substitute Values:

Plug in the slope (-2) and the point ((2, -3)): [y - (-3) = -2(x - 2)] Simplify: [y + 3
= -2x + 4]

Final Equation:

Move (3) to the right side: [y = -2x + 1]

Therefore, the equation of the straight line parallel to (2x + y = 6) and passing
through the point ((2, -3)) is (y = -2x + 1).
