Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

Equations of the lines have bee given as,

y =
(4)/(3)x-5

y =
(4)/(3)x+3

Both the equations are in the slope intercept form. (y = mx + b)

They have same slopes but different y-intercepts.

Same slopes of the equations define the lines to be the parallel lines.

Therefore, Option (2) will be the correct option.
