Answer:
-5/3
Explanation:
Any line parallel to the given line will have the same slope as the given equation;
Given the equation 15x+9y=-162
Rewrite in standard from y = mx+b
15x+9y=-162
9y = -15x - 162
y = -15/9 x - 162/9
y = -5/3 x - 18
This gives the required equation;
Since mx = -5/3 x
m = -5/3
Hence the slope of the line parallel to the given line is -5/3
