the answer is A

Parallel lines have the same slope for which the new equation of the new lines starts as
[tex]y = \frac{1}{4} x + b[/tex]
then you plug in the coordinate given to find b or the y intercept as the slope formula is
[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]
[tex]0 = \frac{1}{4} (8) + b[/tex]
you solve for b and end up with
[tex]2 = b[/tex]
now with all your information your solution is
[tex]y = \frac{1}{4} x + 2[/tex]
