Answer:

f(x) = 2x + b, b - any real number except ś.

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:


y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Parallel line have the same slope.

Therefore the line parallel to the given line y = 2x + ś has equation

y = 2x + b, where b is any real number except ś.
