Write the equation in Slope Intercept form; identify the slope:
2x + 6y = -18
I do not understand how to tell why some equations you do not have to get rid of the 6 in front of the Y but in others like this one you do. If that makes sense
For example you have to divide all this by 6 to get the slope m = -1/3
However how come for a problem like this you don't have to do anything like that x + 2y = 8
If you could please explain why this is I would appreciate it
Thanks
