First, put the equation in point-slope form by getting y by itself. Add the 8 to both sides and then divide both sides by 4. This will get they y by itself. The slope of the line must stay the same but any you can put any number in for the y intercept and it will be parallel to the equation that you started with. This means that the answer must be D since it has the same slope as the first equation
