Answer:

slope = -
(9)/(2)

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 18x + 4y = 122 into this form

Subtract 18x from both sides

4y = - 18x + 122 ( divide all terms by 4 )

y = -
(-18)/(4) x +
(122)/(4) ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = -
(18)/(4) = -
(9)/(2)
