Answer:

M=3/2

Explanation:

Convert to slope-intercept form.

subtract 3x from both sides:

3x-2y=10

-3x -3x

the threes will cancel out leaving you with:

-2y=10-3x

then divide both sides by -2:

-2y=10-3x

-2y -2

your twos will then cancel out leaving you with:

y=-5-3/2

your answer is then:

3/2

heres a formula you can go by:

y=mx+b. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

I hope this helps :)

sorry if it doesn’t.
