Question 694556: I'm sorry, there was no selection for Slope.
Translate the Equation to Slope-Intercept Form:
-2x + 3y = 16
So I know that y = mx + b is the formula to find slope-intercept form and m is the slope.
But I forgot how to find slope.
Thank you very much

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you just have to rewrite the equation you have into y=mx+b (Solve for y)
-2x+3y=16 add 2x to both sides
3y=2x+16 divide by 3 to get y alone
y=2x%2F3%2B16%2F3 this is slope intercept form, you can see the slope is now 2/3
