Question

Find the slope of the line whose equation is 6x - 3y = 12. 2 -2 -4

Answer 1

6x - 3y = 12
3y = 6x -12

y = 2x -4

slope = 2

Answer 2

Answer: 2

Explanation:

We know that the general intercept form of equation of line is given by :-

`y=mx+c`, where m is the slope of the line.

The given equation of line :
`6x - 3y = 12`

Dividing both sides by 3 we get

`2x - y = 4\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=2x+4`

Comparing the equation to the general intercept form of equation of line , we get

The slope of the line (m)=2

Hence, the slope of the line whose equation is
`6x - 3y = 12`is 2.
