Converting standard form into slope–intercept form?

Question

how would I change 3x+2y=6 into slope-intercept form?

I am so confused, and nobody is able to help me! =[

Answer 1

3x+2y=6

-3x       -3x

2y=-3x+6

---------------

2     2   2

y= -3/2 + 3

Answer 2

3x+2y=6 subtract 3x from both sides

2y=6-3x divide both sides by 2

y=-1.5x+3

Answer 3

Here's a good explanation:

Answer 4

Isolate the y term to one side of the equals sign.

3x + 2y = 6

2y = -3x + 6

Give the y term a coefficient of 1.

y = (-3/2)x + 3

Answer 5

subtract the x: 2y=-3x+6

divide by 2: y=-3/2x+3
