Answer:

Slope is 4/3

Explanation:

We need to turn this into slope intercept form to find the slope,

slope intercept form is y=mx+b, we just need to "rearrange" the problem using reverse operations and get our slope

4x+3y=2

4x-4x+3y=2-4x subtract 4x from both sides ⇒ 3y=4x-2

we need to get rid of the 3, so divide both sides by 3


(3y)/(3) =(4x-2)/(3) and we get

y=4/3x-2/3

Our slope is 4/3
