The slope of this line is 1/2.

In order to find the slope of any equation, you can take two points and use the slope formula. For ease, we'll use the two intercepts that you can see: (0, -3) and (6, 0). The formula for slope is below.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

In this equation, m is the slope and (x1, y1) is the first ordered pair and (x2, y2) is the second. So we place those values in to solve for m.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (0 - -3)/(6 - 0)

m = 3/6

m = 1/2

And that is your slope.
