Need something after the equals sign.
If it were equal to 0, the equation here would be 2y=-3x or y=-(3/2)x
and then you would want one of the choices where in slope-intercept form, the slope were -3/2, since like slopes of 2 lines means they are either parallel or the same line.
For -3x-2y=8 the parallel line would be y=-(3/2)x+7 D
