Answer:


y=3x+5

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

This means that we would only have to change the y-intercept to get our new line.

We are asked to write an equation of a parallel line with the y-intercept of five.

Rewrite the infomation to create the new equation. Note that parrarell lines have the same slope.


y = 3x + 2\rightarrow\boxed{y=3x+5}

Hope this helps.
