Question 120503
The process to find the slope of a line where the equation is in x and y is to solve the equation for y.  The slope is then the resulting coefficient on the x term.


{{{6x=24+y}}}


Add -y to both sides:


{{{6x-y=24}}}


Add -6x to both sides:


{{{-y=-6x+24}}}


Multiply by -1:


{{{y=6x-24}}}


The slope of the line is then 6.


Hope this helps,
John
