To find the slope, you need to get the equation in slope-intercept form, so that it is easy to see.
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b, so we need to get y by itself
6x-6y=8 Subtract 6x to the other side
-6y=-6x+8 Divide by -6
y=-6x/-6 - 8/-6 Simplify fractions
y=x-4/3
The slope, m=1. The slope is whatever number is in front of x in slope intercept form, if there is no number, it is an implied 1.
