Answer:

y = x + 4

Explanation:

It is helpful to remember that parallel lines have the same slope. That is, the only thing different in the equation you write will be the added constant, the y-intercept.

If we call that constant "b", then we have ...

y = x + b . . . . . given equation with 8 replaced by b

2 = -2 + b . . . . with (-2, 2) filled in for (x, y)

4 = b . . . . . . add 2 to both sides

Then your parallel line has the equation ...

y = x + 4
