Answer:

The answer to your question is: y = 2.5x - 2

The first option is correct

Explanation:

Data

Parallel to y = 2.5x + 5

Passes (2, 3)

Process

If the lines are parallel, they have the same slope.

slope = 2.5

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

( y - 3) = 2.5 (x - 2)

y - 3 = 2.5x - 5

y = 2.5x - 5 + 3

y = 2.5x - 2
