slope =2/3

Explanation:

The equation of a line in color(blue)"slope-intercept form" is

color(red)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)color(black)(y=mx+b)color(white)(a/a)|)))
where m represents the slope and b, the y-intercept.

The equation here y=2/3x-1" is in this form"

and by comparison of the 2 equations m=2/3

Thus the slope of this line is 2/3
