Answer: [tex]-2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of the line , we will write the equation in the form:
[tex]y = mx + x[/tex]
where:
[tex]m =[/tex] slope
[tex]c =[/tex] y - intercept.
To write [tex]4x + 2y = 12[/tex] in this form , we will make y the subject of the formula.
Subtract 4x from both sides
[tex]2y = -4x + 12[/tex]
Divide through by 2[tex]y = -2x + 6[/tex]
Therefore :
[tex]slope = -2[/tex]
