Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal.
If m 1 is the slope of the 1st line and m 2 is the slope of the 2nd line, then for both the lines to be parallel m 1 = m 2
In the Problem, the given line is -
y = - 1 2 x + 1
Its slope m 1 = - 1 2
The other line is parallel, hence its slope m 2 = m 1
The slope the parallel line is m 2 = - 1 2
