    Step-by-step explanation:

    The equation of a straight line is represented in the slope intercept form as

    y = mx + c

    Where

    c represents the y intercept

    m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

    The equation of the given line is

    2x + 3y = 6

    Rearranging the equation to take the slope intercept form, it becomes

    3y = - 2x + 6

    Dividing through by 3, it becomes

    y = - 2x/3 + 2

    Comparing with the slope intercept form,

    slope = - 2/3

    y intercept = 2
