the equation is in the correct format [y = m*x + b]. m is slope, b is y intercept.
So m = 1/3, and b = 2. Slope is 1/3. Any other line which has a slope of 1/3 will be parallel to this line.

The slope is -1 .
If it is parallel, it must have the same slope of the original line which is -5.
Y = -2x + 5 so the slope of this equation, along with the slopes of parallel equations, is -2
[ y = 2x + 5 ] has a slope of 2. [ y = 2 ] is a horizontal line ... its slope is zero. Their slopes are different, so they're not parallel.
Yes because they have the same slope
