The slope of the equation is the number being multiplied by $x$ .
Therefore, the slope of this equation is $2/3$ .

The equation of a line is $y=mx+b$ .

$m$ is the slope
$b$ is the y-intercept(where the line meets the y-axis.)

In this case, the slope of the line is $2/3$ because it is the number being multiplied by $x$ .
