Find the slope of the line

In the standard (x,y) coordinate plane, what is the slope of the line 11x + 6y = 3?

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b
m is the slope 
b is the y-intercept 

11x + 6y = 3
6y = -11x + 3   {subtracted 11x from each side}
y = (-11/6)x + (1/2)   {divided each side by 6} 

slope = -11/6
