Reduce the equation 6x + 3y + 8 = 0 into slope-intercept form. Hence, find its slope.

Answer»

Given equation is 6x + 3y + 8 = 0, which can be written as 

3y = – 6x – 8

y = -6x/3 - 8/3

y = -2x - 8/3

This is of the form y = mx + c with m = -2 

y = -2x – 8/3 is in slope-intercept form with slope = -2
