You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If we can get the line into y = mx + b form, we have the slope m.
\n" ); document.write( "We need to solve for y in
\n" ); document.write( "-6x - 9y = 12
\n" ); document.write( "-9y = 6x + 12
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-2/3)x - 4/3
\n" ); document.write( "So our slope is -2/3.
\n" ); document.write( "
