The slope of the equation is the number being multiplied by #x#.
Therefore, the slope of this equation is #2/3#.

Explanation:

The equation of a line is #y=mx+b#.

#m# is the slope
#b# is the y-intercept(where the line meets the y-axis.)

In this case, the slope of the line is #2/3# because it is the number being multiplied by #x# .
