Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\text{The slope}\ m=-\dfrac{3}{2}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the equation of a line in the standard form:

[tex]6x+4y=8[/tex]

Convert to the slope-intercept form:

[tex]6x+4y=8[/tex]          subtract 6x from both sides

[tex]4y=-6x+8[/tex]           divide both sides by 4

[tex]y=-\dfrac{6}{4}x+\dfrac{8}{4}[/tex]

[tex]y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+2[/tex]
