Question

What is the slope of the line whose equation is 2x-6y=0?

Answer 1

y=mx+b where m is the slope therefore
-6y=2x
y=-(1/3)x
so the slope would be
-1/3

Answer 2

Equation of a line is:

y=mx+C

------------------------

We're looking for m as m stands for gradient.

2x-6y=0 (Divide all terms by 2)

x-3y=0

3y=x

y=1/3x

y=1/3x+0

Therefore m=1/3, C=0.
