SOLVING

$\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{A. What is Asked}}$

Determine the slope of a line that is parallel to the equation $\bf{3x+6y=18}$.

$\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{B. This problem has been solved!}}$

First we should divide the whole equation by 6,

$\bf{\dfrac{3}{6}x+\dfrac{6}{6}y=\dfrac{18}{6}}$ | simplify

$\bf{\dfrac{1}{2}x+y=3}$ | subtract 1/2 x

$\bf{y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+3$

$\rule{300}{1.7}$

$\bf{Result:}$

            $\bf{=Slope-\dfrac{1}{2}$

$\boxed{\bf{aesthetic\not101}}$
