Find the slope of the line whose equation is 6x - 3y = 12.

You can find the slope by making the equation into slope-intercept form, in other words, solving it for y.

6x - 3y = 12 Subtract 6x from both sides

-3y = - 6x + 12 Divide both sides by - 3

y = 2x - 4

Slope Intercept form is y = mx + b, where m represents slope. M in your equation is 2, so the slope of the line is 2.

6x - 3y = 12

The slope intercept form: y = mx + c.

6x - 3y = 12

-3y = - 6x + 12 Divide both sides by - 3.

(-3y/-3) = (-6x + 12) / - 3

y = 2x - 4 comparing to y = mx + c, where m = slope, m = 2

slope = 2
