The slope of a parallel line will have the same slope as the original line.
The equation in the problem is in Standard Linear form. The standard form of a linear equation is: Ax+By=C
Where, if at all possible, A, B, and Care integers, and A is non-negative, and, A, B, and C have no common factors other than 1
The slope of an equation in standard form is: m = - A B
3 x + 2 y = 6
The slope of this line is:
m = - 3 2
Therefore, the slope of a parallel line is - 3 2
