What is the slope of the line whose equation is 6x + 3y = 12

Parth (parthkohli):

First convert it to the form y = mx + b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=mx+c slope =m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be 3y=6x+12?

Parth (parthkohli):

Now divide both sides by 3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide everything by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would it would be y=2x+4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

Parth (parthkohli):

Exactly. now what's the coefficient of x here?
