Answer:

slope = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

3x + 2y = 12 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2y = - 3x + 12 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 6 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
