    There’s an easy rule for this form !
    if you ever see this form : ax+by=c
    and it asks about the slope, then you can use this rule : slope= -a/b

    and if it asks about the y-intercept, you can use this rule : y-intercept= c/b

    so to get the slope of your question, all you have to do is : slope = -2/3

    I hope this helped !

    Answer:

    m = -2/3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2x + 3y = 12

    -2x. -2x

    3y = -2x + 12

    ÷3. ÷3. ÷3

    y = -2/3x + 4

    m = -2/3
