Question

What is the slope of the line 2x 3y =- 3?

Answer 1

Answer: 2/3x OR -2/3x

Explanation:

If the equation is 2x+3y=-3:

2x+3y=-3

-2x -2x

3y=-2x-3

/3 /3

y=-2/3x-3

In a y=mx+b equation, slope is mx, which is -2/3x

If the equation is 2x-3y=-3:

2x-3y=-3

-2x -2x

-3y=-2x-3

/-3 /-3

y=2/3x-3

In a y=mx+b equation, slope is mx, which is 2/3x
