You can quickly reconise the slope of a linear equation, such as you have here, by first getting your equation into the "slope-intercept" form:
where: m = the slope and b = the y-intercept.
Starting with the given equation:
First add 3x to both sides of the equation.
Now subtract 10 from both sides.
Finally, divide both sides by 2.
Now compare this with the "slope-intercept" form:
and you can see that the slope,
