Answer: -[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

      To solve this question, I am going to first put the equation into slope-intercept form.

      2x + 12y = -192

      12y = -2x - 192

      y = -[tex]\frac{2}{12}[/tex] - 16

      y = -[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] - 16

      Now that the first equation has an easily identifiable slope, we can answer the question. Parallel lines will have the same slope, so that means the answer will be:

             -[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
