What is the slope of the equation (3x-y=6)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(3\)

Write the equation in slope-intercept form: \(3x-y=6\Rightarrow -y=6-3x\Rightarrow y=3x-6\). In the form \(y=mx+c\), the coefficient \(m\) of \(x\) is the slope, so the slope is \(3\). The option \(-3\) is a common error because multiplying both sides by \(-1\) while isolating \(y\) makes the coefficient of \(x\) positive. Exam tip: convert the equation to \(y=mx+c\) before identifying the slope.
