Find the slope of the line with the equation 12x - 8y + 7 = 9.

-3/2

312

2/3

The slope is 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is a in the equation y = ax + b

The equation is - 8y = - 12x + 9 - 7 → - 8y = - 12x + 2

When we make this possitive by multiplying by - 1 the equation will be

8y = 12x - 2

To get Y we have to divide by 8

y = 12/8 x - 2/8

The slope is 12/8 or if we simplify it 3/2
