    2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Answer

    Anything in front of the x. Everything else is irrelevant unless it changes the value of the number in front of the x.

    In this case the slope is 2.

    New Question

    If the equation was given as 3y = 6x - 8, then the slope would be

    y = 6/3x - 8/3

    y = 2x - 8/3 which turns out to be 2 not 6
