Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]P=(5,\,2)\quad\implies\quad x_p=5\,,\quad y_p=2[/tex]
The slope-intercept form the equation of the line:
y = mx + b
Two lines are parallel if they hav the same slope.
no x in given line means m = 0 ⇒ y = b
The line goes through P so: [tex]y_p=b[/tex]
2 = b
b = 2
so ithe equation of line parallel to given is:
y = 2
