Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the equation is determined as per slope-intercept form:

y = mx +b

Bring the given equation to mentioned form:

2x - 3y = 12 ⇒ make y the subject
3y = 2x - 12 ⇒ divide all terms by 3
y = 2/3x - 4 ⇒ this is the slope-intercept form

Since m = 2/3, it is the slope of the given equation

Answer:

slope = $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

2x - 3y = 12 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

- 3y = - 2x + 12 ( divide all terms by - 3 )

y = $\frac{2}{3}$ x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = $\frac{2}{3}$

How do u do this problem: W/6+5/8=-1 3/8 I got this answer: -1 53/64

Kobotan [32]

We have question
$\frac{W}{6}+ \frac{5}{8} =-1 \frac{3}{8}$
$\frac{W}{6} + \frac{5}{8} =- \frac{11}{8}$ /*8 (multiply both sides by 8)
$\frac{W8}{6} + \frac{5}{1} =- \frac{11}{1}$ /*6 (multiply both sides by 6)
$8W+5*6=-11*6$ /-30 both sides
8W=-66-30
8W=-96
W=-12
