Answer:

y = 3

Explanation:

y = - 2 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A parallel line will also be a horizontal line with equation

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (8, 3 ) with y- coordinate 3 , thus

y = 3 ← equation of parallel line
