Answer:

y = 5/2x - 14, or option D.  

Step-by-step explanation:

So, being parallel means that the slopes have to be the same. Just use the formula y - y1 = m(x- x1)

Thus the equation is y - (-29) =  5/2 (x - (-6)

Two negatives make a positive, so our new equation is y + 29 = 5/2(x + 6)

Distribute

y + 29 = 5/2x + 15

Subtract 29 from both sides.

Final answer - y = 5/2x - 14

Hope this helps!
