Answer:
y = x + 4
Step-by-step 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
