The problem requires us to convert the equation $3x - 2y = -6$ into slope-intercept form, which is $y = mx + b$, where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept. Then, we need to identify the slope $m$ of the line.

1. Problem Description

The problem requires us to convert the equation 3x2y=63x - 2y = -6 into slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+by = mx + b, where mm is the slope and bb is the y-intercept. Then, we need to identify the slope mm of the line.

2. Solution Steps

First, we rearrange the equation 3x2y=63x - 2y = -6 to solve for yy.
3x2y=63x - 2y = -6
Subtract 3x3x from both sides:
2y=3x6-2y = -3x - 6
Divide both sides by 2-2:
y=3x62y = \frac{-3x - 6}{-2}
y=3x2+62y = \frac{-3x}{-2} + \frac{-6}{-2}
y=32x+3y = \frac{3}{2}x + 3
The equation is now in slope-intercept form, y=32x+3y = \frac{3}{2}x + 3.
The slope mm is the coefficient of xx, which is 32\frac{3}{2}.

3. Final Answer

32\frac{3}{2}
