Answer:
- [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope (gradient) and c the y- intercept )
Given
2y = - 3x - 8 ( divide all terms by 2 )
y = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form
with gradient = - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
