slope
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#
