Answer:

The slope is -2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

9y + 2x = 54

Solve for y to get the equation in the form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Subtract 2x from each side

9y + 2x -2x = -2x+54

9y = -2x+54

Divide by 9

9y/9 = -2x/9 + 54/9

y = -2/9 x +6

The slope is -2/9

Parallel lines have the same slope
