The easiest way to figure this out is to get the line into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b form).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2B3y%2B6=0\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3y=-2x-6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-2%2F3%2Ax-6%2F3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-2%2F3%2Ax-2\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The slope is the m value in the above equation.
\n" ); document.write( "This means that the slope of this line is $\"-2%2F3\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
