Start with:
2x + 3y = 6
You want to get y by itself so subtract 2x from both sides:
3y = 6 - 2x
Now divide both sides by 3:
y = 6/3 - 2x/3
Simplify:
y = 2 - (2/3)x
If you want it in y = mx + b form:
y = (-2/3)x + 2
So the slope is -2/3 and the y-intercept is (0,2)

2x + 3y = 6
2(6) + 3(-2) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
x=6
y=3

First isolate y by subtacting 2x on both sides:
3y=-2x+6
Divide by 3 on both sides:
y=(-2/3)x+2
So your answer will be:
y=-2/3x+2
Note:
(0,2) will be your y intercept and -2/3 will be your slope.
Hope this helps!

2x+3y=6
3y=6-2x
y= (6-2x)/3
y=2-(2/3)x

2X-2x+3y=-2X+6
3y=-2x+6
1/2 * 3Y=3/2(-2x+6)
y=3/2 * (-2x) + 3/2*6
y=-3x+9

There is an inifinity of solutions: y = 2 - x*2/3 for every x belonging to the set of real number
