What is the slope of the equation 2y = 6x - 8?

Answer 1

Well you need this in the form

y = mx + b *notice 'y' is by itself on that left side

here, 'm' is the slope....and 'b' is the y-intercept...

so with your equation

2y = 6x - 8

You need to get 'y' by itself...so you must divide the whole equation by 2

2y = 6x - 8
-----------
2 2 2

y = 3x - 4

so compare that with the equation y = mx + b where 'm' is the slope

y = mx + b
y = 3x - 4

what is your slope?

Answer 2

3 because m=slope so whatever number is in "m" place thats youre slope
