Step-by-step explanation:

Paralle lines have the same slope.

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have

5y+9=-2x

Convert to the slope-intercept form:

5y+9=-2x subtract 9 from both sides

5y=-2x-9 divide both sides by 5

$y=-\dfrac{2}{5}x-\dfrac{9}{5}\to m=-\dfrac{2}{5}$

Each of the answers to choose from is not the line equation sought.

The equation:

$y=-\dfrac{2}{5}x+b$ where b is any real number.
