Answer:

The answer is -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We first start by removing x in order isolate the y variable

2y = 6 - x

y = [tex]\frac{6-x}{2}[/tex]

Further, we simplify the equation in order to get the value of m (slope)

y = 3 + [tex]\frac{-1x}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, our slope is equivalent to -1/2
