Answer:

The slope is -2.

-------------------------

Given line in standard form of:

  • ax + by = c

Its slope is determined in the slope-intercept form:

  • y = mx + b, where m is the slope

Convert the given equation into slope-intercept form:

  • 6x + 3y = 15
  • 3y = - 6x + 15
  • y = - 2x + 5

The slope is m = - 2.
