Answer:

D  

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

the given equation is in the form

y=mx+b

where

m=-5/2

b=-7

m is the slope.  You can see this by noting that if you increase x by 1 you increase y by m.

So, in this case, you are looking for a line with slope of -5/2.

You can solve each of the choice equations for y to see which one has the right slope.

A: y=(2/5)x-6   no good

B: y=-(2/5)x-1   no good

C: y=(5/2)x-4   no good

D: y=-(5/2)x-4  GOOD
