Final answer:

The slope of the first equation is -3/2, the y-intercept is 3. The slope of the second equation is 3/2, the y-intercept is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

For the equation 3x + 2y = 6, we need to rearrange it in slope-intercept form:

2y = -3x + 6

y = (-3/2)x + 3

So, the slope is -3/2, the y-intercept is 3.

For the equation 3x - 2y = 6, we rearrange it in slope-intercept form:

-2y = -3x + 6

y = (3/2)x - 3

So, the slope is 3/2, the y-intercept is -3.
