Answer:

The slope of a parallel line to this one would be -6.

Explanation:

To find the slope of any parallel line, you simply have to find the slope of the original line. This is because parallel lines have the same slope.

Since this equation is written in slope intercept form (y = mx + b), we know the slope to be the coefficient of x. In this case, the coefficient of x is -6.

For a line to be parallel, it must have the same slope as the first line so the slope of a parallel line would be -6.
