Parallel lines have the same slope.

Since the given line has a slope of 5, the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 5 as well.

Now, there are lots of equations with a slope of 5.

y=5x-3

y=5x+2

And so on...

y = 5x

Explanation:


as \: the \: line \: is \: parallel \: to \: line \: z \\ hence , \\ set \: the \: equation \: of \: the \: line \: as \\ y = kx + b \\ \\given... \\ y = 5x + 3 \\ comparing \: the \: equations \: we \: get \: \\ k = 5 \\ \\ hence \: the \: equation \: can \: be \: y = 5x

hope helpful~
