You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two lines that are parallel must have the same slope.
.
First, determine the slope of:
8x + 2y = 6
Do this by converting it to the "slope-intercept" form of:
y = mx + b
where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
.
8x + 2y = 6
2y = -8x + 6
y = -2x + 3
slope is -2
Which is also your answer.
