Answer:


\textbf{The slope of the parallel line is given by $ (-2)/(3) $}\\

Explanation:


\textup{The slope of any two parallel lines are equal and they only differ in their $y- intercepts$. }\\\textup{Given $y = (-2)/(3)x + (1)/(3) $}\\\textup{This is  comparable to $y = mx + c$, where $m$ is the slope of that line.}\\\textup{Therefore, the slope of the given line and any line parallel to it is $ (-2)/(3)$.}
