SOLVING


\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{A. What is Asked}}

Determine the slope of a line that is parallel to the equation
\bf{3x+6y=18}.


\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{B. This problem has been solved!}}

First we should divide the whole equation by 6,


\bf{(3)/(6)x+(6)/(6)y=(18)/(6)} | simplify


\bf{(1)/(2)x+y=3} | subtract 1/2 x


\bf{y=-(1)/(2)x+3


\rule{300}{1.7}


\bf{Result:}


\bf{=Slope-(1)/(2)


\boxed{\bf{aesthetic\\ot101}}
