$m = \frac{5}{6}$ $m = 5/6$

Explanation:

$\frac{1}{6} y = \frac{2}{3} y - \frac{5}{12} x + 1$ $1/6 y =2/3 y - 5/12 x +1$

$\frac{1}{6} y - \frac{2}{3} y = - \frac{5}{12} x + 1$ $1/6 y -2/3 y = -5/12 x +1$

$- \frac{1}{2} y = - \frac{5}{12} x + 1$ $-1/2 y = -5/12 x +1$

Multiply both sides by $- 2$ $-2$ to get

$- 2 \cdot (- \frac{1}{2} y) = - 2 \cdot (- \frac{5}{12} x + 1)$ $-2 * (-1/2 y) = -2 * ( -5/12 x +1)$

$y = \frac{5}{6} x - 2$ $y= 5/6 x -2$

$m = \frac{5}{6}$ $m = 5/6$
