Given : A linear equation in two variables is given to us , which is y = -½ + 3 .
To Find : The slope of the line .
Solution : The given equation to us is y = -½ + 3 . This equation is also similar to form of a equation in slope - intercept form , which is ,

Where , m is the slope of the line and c is the y - intercept of the line .
Now , on comparing the equation with the standard form , we have :
- m ( slope ) = -½ .
- c ( y - intercept ) = 3 .
<u>Hen</u><u>ce</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>slope </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>line</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>½</u><u>.</u>
