gradient is $\frac{3}{2}$ $3/2$ .
You can find the slope by re-arranging the equation in the form:
$y = m x + c$ $y = mx + c$
where $m$ $m$ is the gradient and
$c$ $c$ is the y-intercept( that is the value of y where the line 'hits the y-axis)

so $3 x - 2 y = 6$ $3x - 2y = 6$ becomes
$y = \frac{3}{2} x - 3$ $y = 3/2x - 3$

hence from the above form gradient( $m$ $m$ ) is $\frac{3}{2}$ $3/2$
