Hi there! The answer is 2.

To find the slope we must rewrite the equating in the following standard form:
[tex]y = ax + b[/tex]
With a representing the slope.

We get the following:
[tex]6x - 3y = 12[/tex]

Subtract 6x
[tex] - 3y = - 6x + 12[/tex]

Divide by -3
[tex]y = 2x - 4[/tex]

Now we can find our answer: the slope of the line is 2.
