Parallel equations will have the same slope but a different y-intercept so to find which equation would be parallel, you need to find the slope:

8x-3y=30

8x-30=3y


(8)/(3)x-10=y \\

The slope of this equation is 8/3, therefore, you need an equation that has that same slope but a different y-int.
