The other point, the second line may pass through is $(4, 11)$ $(4,11)$

Explanation:

The slope of the first line is $m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{3 - 6}{7 - 9} = \frac{3}{2}$ $m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)= (3-6)/(7-9)=3/2$
Since the second line is parallal to first line,the slope of the 2nd line is also $3/2:.$ The other point, the second line may pass through is $(2+2),(8+3) or (4,11)$ [Ans]
