Answer:

slope is 2

Explanation:

simplify this equation so that you can get to "y ="

your equation is: 6x - 3y = 5

start by subtracting 6x from both sides: -3y = -6x - 5

then divide both sides by -3 to isolate y: y = 2x - 5/3

so now we can clearly see that the slope is 2, since that is what is right next to x
