Answer:
The graph of the line x = -2 is also attached below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the line
x=-5
x=-5 represents the vertical. We know that the slope of a vertical line is undefined. Thus, the slope of x=-5 is undefined.
Since parallel lines have the same slopes, it means the line which is supposed to be the parallel line to the given line and passing through p(-2, 6) must also be in the form (x = a).
As the line passes through (-2, 6). As the line is vertical, meaning no matter what the value of y is, the x-value remains the same.
Thus, the equation of the line would be x = -2
The graph of the line x = -2 is also attached below.

Explanation:
As points have three coordinates i.e. x, y and z hence the sketch of the given four points is drawn in 3D shape and for that picture is attached here with this answer.
Points are given in the format as below
(value of x-coordinate , value of y-coordinate , value of z-coordinate)
In the attachment:
Point A = (0,5,2) (in blue color)
Point B = (4,0,-1) (in purple color)
Point C = (2,4,6) (in orange color)
Point D = (1,-1,2) (in black color)
