We first need to convert 3x - 2y = 8 into y = mx + b form.
To do this, we first subtract 3x from
both sides and we have -2y = -3x + 8.
Now divide both sides by -2 and we have y = 3/2x - 4.
Now, we want the slope parallel to this given line.
Since the m or the coefficient of the x term
represents slope, we know this line has a slope of 3/2.
Now, it's important to understand that parallel lines have the same slope.
So the slope of the line parallel to this line will also be 3/2.
