Rewriting the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form,

[tex]8x-7y=87\\\\-7y=-8x+87\\\\7y=8x-87\\\\y=\frac{8}{7}x-\frac{87}{7}[/tex]

The slope of the given line is thus 8/7, and since parallel lines have the same slope, the slope of the line we want to find is also 8/7.

Substituting into point-slope form,

[tex]y+17=\frac{8}{7}(x-3)\\\\y+17=\frac{8}{7}x-\frac{24}[7}\\\\\boxed{y=\frac{8}{7}x-\frac{143}{7}}[/tex]
