Explanation:
#"the equation of a line in "color(blue)"slope-intercept form"# is.
#•color(white)(x)y=mx+b#
#"where m is the slope and b the y-intercept"#
#"rearrange "2x+3y=6" into this form"#
#"subtract "2x" from both sides"#
#rArr3y=-2x+6#
#"divide all terms by 3"#
#rArry=-2/3x+2larrcolor(blue)"in slope-intercept form"#
#"with slope "=-2/3" and y-intercept "=2#
