Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3y + 2x = 1 into this form

Subtract 2x from both sides

3y = - 2x + 1 ( divide all terms by 3 )

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] → A
