The answer is y=2x-6.

Parallel lines have equal gradients; the gradient is the coefficient of x.
In this case, it is very straight forward as there is only one equation in the list that has the same gradient/x-coefficient as the one in the question, which is 2.
The answer has to be the third option (y = 2x - 6) and sure enough, if you input the x-value 4 into the equation, you will get 2 as the y-value, so we know the line passes through the point (4, 2).

The shortest the third side can be is the difference of the other two sides:
.. 23.6 -11.5 = 12.1
The longest the third side can be is the sum of the other two sides:
.. 23.6 +11.5 = 35.1

12.1 < third side < 35.1
