Question 613788: "Find the slope of each line"
6x-2y=5
i dont know if i was supposed to plug in the zero even though there already is a number. help?

Answer by scott8148(6628)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
subtracting 6x ___ -2y = -6x + 5

dividing by -2 ___ y = 3x - (5/2) ___ this is the slope-intercept form (y is by itself)
___ the slope is the coefficient of the x-term, 3 in this case
