Sooooo... what??????

Answer:
y = 4x +3
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is in slope-intercept form, so you can see that its slope is m=4. The parallel line will have the same slope.
Using the form given in the hint, you have ...
y -(-5) = 4(x -(-2))
y +5 = 4x +8 . . . . eliminate parentheses
y = 4x +3 . . . . . . subtract 5
