Answer:

slope = - \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes thus the slope of a parallel line will be equal to the slope of PQ

To calculate slope m use the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = P(- 2, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q(6, - 2)

m = \frac{-2-4}{6+2} = \frac{-6}{8} = - \frac{3}{4}
