Question

What is the slope of the graph of the equation 4x - 6y=2?A.-4B.-1C.2/3D.3/2

Answer 1

Given:

`4x-6y=2`

Write the abve expression in the for of y=mx+c, then m will be the slope of the equation.

`\begin{gathered} 4x-6y=2 \\ -6y=-4x+2 \\ y=(-4x+2)/(-6) \\ y=(2)/(3)x-(1)/(3) \end{gathered}`

Compare the above expression with y=mx+c. The slope of the given equation is 2/3, and the correct option is option C.
