Answer:

x= -1

Explanation:

Since x= 5 is a vertical line, the unknown line would also be a vertical line with an equation of x=___ as they are parallel to each other.

Given that the line passes through (-1, 2), the equation of the line is x= -1.

Parallel lines have the same slope and will never meet.
