In order to find the slope, write the equation of the line 2y = 8x - 3 in the slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So,
2y = 8x - 3 divide by 2 to both sides,
y = 4 x - 3/2
Thus, the coefficient of the x-variable, 4, is the slope of the line 2y = 8x - 3.

2y = 8x - 3 divide by 2 to both sidesy = 4x - 3/2 (this is the slope-intercept form of the equation, where slope is 4)The slope is 4.
If you mean: 4x-2y = -3 then the slope of the line parallel to it will also have a slope of 2 but with a different y intercept
Slope of given line = 3 So slope of perpendicular = -1/3
If you mean: 4x-2y = -3 then in its slope-intercept form it is y = 2x+1.5 and the slope of the line parallel to it will also be 2 but with a different y intercept
