Answer:

y = -6x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 parallel lines should have equal slope

Rewrite 6x + y = 92

It is now y = -6x + 92. Slope is -6

So the new equation should also have -6 as the slope.

y = -6x + b

Substitute (1,-2) into this equation

-2 = -6(1) + b

-2 = -6 + b

4 = b

So equation is y = -6x + 4
