Question

What is the slope of the line with equation -3+6y=12

Answer 1

Note the slope intercept form: y = mx + b

Simplify so that the equation give to you looks like the above.

First, add 3 to both sides: -3 (+3) + 6y = 12 (+3)

                                                         6y = 15

                                                    (6y)/6 = (15)/6

                                                          y = 2.5

Because there is no m, x or b, your slope is not available (or 0 for this case).

Answer 2

The slope is zero beacuse there is no x

after solving you get

6y = 15

y = 15/6

Upon graphing this a straight line is seen with zero slope
