    B. 2/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Parallel lines have the same slope

    We need to find the slope of the given line

    2x-3y = 6

    Solve for y

    Subtract 2x from each side

    2x-2x-3y = -2x+6

    -3y = - 2x+6

    Divide each side by - 3

    -3y/-3 = - 2x/-3+6/-3

    y = 2/3 x - 2

    This is in slope intercept form (y = mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

    The slope is 2/3

    2x-3y=6

    3y=2x-6

    y=2/3x-2

    Slope = 2/3

    Therefore B
