Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:
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: #color(red)(A)x + color(blue)(B)y = color(green)(C)#
Where, if at all possible, #color(red)(A)#, #color(blue)(B)#, and #color(green)(C)#are 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 = -color(red)(A)/color(blue)(B)#
#color(red)(3)x + color(blue)(2)y = color(green)(6)#
The slope of this line is:
#m = -color(red)(3)/color(blue)(2)#
Therefore, the slope of a parallel line is #-3/2#
