Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{m=-3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form:

[tex]Ax+By=C[/tex]

The slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

[tex]m[/tex] - slope

METHOD 1:

[tex]m=-\dfrac{A}{B}\\\\-6x-2y=9\to A=-6;\ B=-2\\\\m=-\dfrac{-6}{-2}=-3[/tex]

METHOD 2:

[tex]-6x-2y=9[/tex]

convert to the slope intercept form:

[tex]-6x-2y=9\qquad|\txt{add}\ 6x\ \text{to the both sides}\\\\-2y=6x+9\qquad|\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\y=-3x-4.5\to m=-3[/tex]
