Note the slope intercept form: y = mx + b, in which m = slope
Isolate the y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, add 3x to both sides
-3x (+3x) + 6y = (+3x) + 12
6y = 3x + 12
Fully isolate the y. Divide 6 from both sides (and to all terms)
(6y)/6 = (3x + 12)/6
y = (3x)/6 + (12)/6
Simplify
y = (1/2)x + 2
y = 0.5x + 2 is your equation.
The slope is direclty left of the x (or the m variable). In this case, it is 0.5
0.5 is your answer (or 1/2 if wanted in fraction form)

Answer:
When a line is parallel to another line, they have the same slope. So far the equation would be, y=4x+b. To find the value of b, substitute the given point into the equation.
8=4(-1)+b
8=-4+b
b=12
So, the equation of the line is y=4x+12.

Answer:
2(multiplicity 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
2 is repeated twice in the function.
I would substitute y = x^2
4y^2 -21y+20=0
