Question

What is the slope of line 2x-3y=19.
​

Answer 1

Answer: 2/3

Explanation:

2x-3y=19

minus 2x from both sides

-3y=-2x+19

divide both sides by -3

y=2/3x-19/3

slope is 2/3

Answer 2

`(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

Given Equation of line: y=mx+c,

where m = slope of line.

So, we will have to make y the subject to find the slope.

`2x-3y=19\\2x-3y-2x=19-2x\\-3y=-2x+19\\y=(-2x+19)/(-3) \\y=(2)/(3) x-(19)/(3)`

From here, we can see the slope of the line is
`(2)/(3)`.
