It asks me find the equation that is parallel to y=-5 and passes through (-3,5).
***
y=-5 is an equation of a horizontal line(slope=0)where y=-5 for all values of x
y=5 is also a horizontal line like equation of given line except y=5 for all values of x. It must, therefore, be parallel to given line and pass through (-3,5)
