Answer:

x = - 5

Explanation:

The line with equation x = - 2 is a vertical line parallel to the y- axis

The equation of a vertical line is

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (- 5, 4) with x- coordinate - 5, thus

equation of parallel line is x = - 5
