Answer:

y = 0.8x

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts

Bottom line slope can be found by noting that it passes through points

(0, -3.2) and (4,0)

Then find the difference in y values which is called the rise

Find the corresponding difference in x values called the run

rise/run = slope

For the bottom line
Rise = 0 - (-3.2) = 3.2

Run = 4 - 0 =4

So slope m = 3.2/4 = 0.8

Slope of top line is also 0.8

Since it passes through origin there is no y-intercept

So equation of top line is simply
y = 0.8x
