Answer:

-1/2

Explanation:

Since it’s the slope of a parallel line the slope is going to be equal to the line. If it was the slope of a perpendicular line you would find the opposite reciprocals of -1/2.

The parallel slope would be -1/2. A parallel line that has the same slope as the original line.
