Answer:

i believe its: -1/3

Explanation:

if the line is parallel to the original line, the slope should be the same, and the slope of the original line is - 1/3. the slope is negative because the line is heading downwards, or in a negative direction. hope this helped!!

Answer:

Using points ( 2 , - 4) and ( 0 , 2)

Slope = 2+4/0-2 = 6/-2 = - 3

Since the lines are parallel their slope will be the same

So the slope of the line parallel to the one in the picture is - 3

That's option A.

Hope this helps.
