y = mx + c
Arrange the given equation in the same format where 'm' is the slope
6y = -24x + 12 ----> Divide the the whole thing by 6
y = -4x + 2
For any parallel lines the slope is always equal.
So slope of parallel line is -4
What is the slope of any line parallel to the line formed by the equation -24x - 6y = 12
Rewrite in standard format y = -(24x/6) - 12/6
y = -4x - 2
Slope = -4
---------------------------------------------------------
-24x-6y = 12 dividing by -6, 4x +y =-2 so y = -4x -2
gradient of this line = - 4 which is also the gradient of any line parallel to it.
-24x-6y=c
