Answer:

slope = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

2x + 3y = - 12 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

3y = - 2x - 12 ( divide all terms by 3 )

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
