Answer: y=4x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of y=4x+23 is:4 m=4

The parallel line needs to have the same slope of 4

Solve it using the "point-slope" equation of a line: y− y1 = 2(x − x1)

substitute or put in the point (2,3):

y − (3) = 4(x − 2)

y - 3 = 4x - 8

put it in slope intercept form y = mx + b

y = 4x − 5
